                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                      October 16, 2007.
    Resolved, That upon the adoption of this resolution it shall be in order to 
consider in the House the bill (H.R. 2102) to maintain the free flow of 
information to the public by providing conditions for the federally compelled 
disclosure of information by certain persons connected with the news media. All 
points of order against consideration of the bill are waived except those 
arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI. The amendment in the nature of a 
substitute recommended by the Committee on the Judiciary now printed in the bill 
shall be considered as adopted. The bill, as amended, shall be considered as 
read. All points of order against provisions of the bill, as amended, are 
waived. The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the bill, as 
amended, to final passage without intervening motion except: (1) one hour of 
debate equally divided and controlled by the chairman and ranking minority 
member of the Committee on the Judiciary; (2) the amendment printed in the 
report of the Committee on Rules, if offered by Representative Boucher of 
Virginia or his designee, which shall be in order without intervention of any 
point of order (except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI) or demand 
for division of the question, shall be considered as read, and shall be 
separately debatable for ten minutes equally divided and controlled by the 
proponent and an opponent; and (3) one motion to recommit with or without 
instructions.
    Sec. 2.  During consideration of H.R. 2102 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.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
