H. Res. 342

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                         June 28, 2005.
    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. 3058) making appropriations for the Departments of Transportation, 
Treasury, and Housing and Urban Development, the Judiciary, District of 
Columbia, and independent agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 
2006, 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 comma on page 5, line 25, through ``and'' on line 
26; beginning with ``for'' on page 11, line 22, through the first comma on page 
12, line 1; beginning with the colon on page 12, line 12, through ``Program'' on 
line 17; beginning with ``Notwithstanding'' on page 16, line 8, through the 
comma on line 8; sections 110, 112 and 130; beginning with the colon on page 32, 
line 25, through ``Congress'' on page 33, line 3; beginning with 
``Notwithstanding'' on page 34, line 4, through the comma on line 4; and 
sections 151, 218, 808, 928, and 945. Where points of order are waived against 
part of a paragraph or section, points of order against a provision in another 
part of such paragraph or section may be made only against such provision and 
not against the entire paragraph or section. 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. When the committee rises and reports the bill back to the House with a 
recommendation that the bill do pass, 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
