    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 concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 99) revising the 
congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2007, 
establishing the congressional budget for the United States Government for 
fiscal year 2008, and setting forth appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal 
years 2009 through 2012. The first reading of the concurrent resolution shall be 
dispensed with. All points of order against consideration of the concurrent 
resolution shall be dispensed with. All points of order against consideration of 
the concurrent resolution are waived. General debate shall not exceed four 
hours, with three hours confined to the congressional budget equally divided and 
controlled by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the 
Budget and one hour on the subject of economic goals and policies equally 
divided and controlled by Representative Maloney of New York and Representative 
Saxton of New Jersey or their designees. After general debate the concurrent 
resolution shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. The 
concurrent resolution shall be considered as read. No amendment shall be in 
order except those printed in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying 
this resolution. Each amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the 
report, may be offered only by a Member designated in the report, shall be 
considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified in the report, and 
shall not be subject to amendment. All points of order against the amendments 
printed in the report are waived except that the adoption of an amendment in the 
nature of a substitute shall constitute the conclusion of consideration of the 
concurrent resolution for amendment. After the conclusion of consideration of 
the concurrent resolution for amendment, the Committee shall rise and report the 
concurrent resolution to the House with such amendment as may have been adopted. 
The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the concurrent 
resolution and amendments thereto to final adoption without intervening motion 
except amendments offered by the chairman of the Committee on the Budget 
pursuant to section 305(a)(5) of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to achieve 
mathematical consistency. The concurrent resolution shall not be subject to a 
demand for division of the question of its adoption.

pursuant to this resolution, notwithstanding the operation of the previous 
question, the Chair may postpone further consideration of the concurrent 
resolution to such time as may be designated by the Speaker.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
