                               RESOLUTION


 
      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2764) making 
  appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and 
related programs 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. 2764) making 
appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and 
related programs 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. 2764 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.
