      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3222) making 
appropriations for the Department of Defense 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. 3222) making 
appropriations for the Department of Defense 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. 3222 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.
