    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution

House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the State of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2537) to amend the

except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. 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 Transportation and Infrastructure. After general 
debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute 
rule. It shall be in order to consider as an original bill for the 
purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule the amendment in the 
nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on Transportation 
and Infrastructure now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in 
the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. All points of 
order against the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute are 
waived except those arising under clause 10 of rule XXI. 
Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule XVIII, no amendment to the committee 
amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be in order except those 
printed in the portion of the Congressional Record designated for that 
purpose in clause 8 of rule XVIII before the beginning of consideration 
of the bill and except pro forma amendments for the purpose of debate. 
Each amendment so printed may be offered only by the Member who caused 
it to be printed or his designee and 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. Any Member may demand a separate vote in the House 
on any amendment adopted in the Committee of the Whole to the bill or 
to the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute. 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.
    Sec. 2.  During consideration in the House of H.R. 2537 pursuant to 
this resolution, notwithstanding the operation of the previous 
question, the Chair may postpone further consideration of the bill to 
such time as may be designated by the Speaker.
