                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
 Regarding the awarding of contracts with respect to the recovery from 
    the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita.

    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That the head of a Federal agency may only enter into a contract with 
respect to the recovery from the devastation caused by Hurricane 
Katrina and Hurricane Rita after an open and fair bidding process and 
may not alter such contracts so as to circumvent the purpose of the 
open and fair bidding process through the use of change orders or 
otherwise.
