                               RESOLUTION


 
      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2642) making 
 appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans 
Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 
                     2008, 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. 2642) making 
appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans 
Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 
2008, 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 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 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. 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.
    Sec. 2. During consideration in the House of H.R. 2642 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.
