      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 4766) making 
   appropriations for Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug 
    Administration, and Related Agencies for the fiscal year ending 
              September 30, 2005, and for other purposes.

    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution 
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the 
House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 4766) making 
appropriations for Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug 
Administration, and Related Agencies for the fiscal year ending 
September 30, 2005, and for other purposes. The first reading of the 
bill shall be dispensed with. All points of order against consideration 
of the bill are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill 
and shall not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled by the 
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
Appropriations. After general debate the bill shall be considered for 
amendment under the five-minute rule. Points of order against 
provisions in the bill for failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI 
are waived except as follows: Beginning with the colon on page 3, line 
25, through ``out'' on page 4, line 6; section 717; and section 751. 
Where points of order are waived against part of a paragraph, points of 
order against a provision in another part of such paragraph may be made 
only against such provision and not against the entire paragraph. The 
amendment printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying 
this resolution may be offered only by a Member designated in the 
report and only at the appropriate point in the reading of the bill, 
shall be considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified 
in the report equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an 
opponent, and shall not be subject to amendment. All points of order 
against that amendment are waived. During consideration of the bill for 
amendment, the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole may accord 
priority in recognition on the basis of whether the Member offering an 
amendment has caused it to be printed in the portion of the 
Congressional Record designated for that purpose in clause 8 of rule 
XVIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. At the 
conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee 
shall rise and report the bill to the House with such amendments as may 
have been adopted. The previous question shall be considered as ordered 
on the bill and amendments thereto to final passage without intervening 
motion except one motion to recommit with or without instructions.
