                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                      November 9, 2007.
    Resolved, That upon the adoption of this resolution it shall be in order to 
consider in the House the bill (H.R. 3996) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 
1986 to extend certain expiring provisions, and for other purposes. 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 Ways and Means 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, and on 
any amendment thereto, 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 Ways and Means; (2) an amendment in the 
nature of a substitute, if offered by Representative McCrery of Louisiana or his 
designee, which shall be considered as read, and shall be separately debatable 
for one hour 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. 3996 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.
