    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

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 
chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Financial Services. After 
general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute 
rule. It shall be in order to consider as an original bill for the purpose of 
amendment under the five-minute rule the amendment in the nature of a substitute 
recommended by the Committee on Financial Services now printed in the bill. The 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. 
All points of order against the committee amendment in the nature of a 
substitute are waived except those arising under clause 10 of rule XXI. 
Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule XVIII, no amendment to the committee amendment 
in the nature of a substitute shall be in order except those printed in the 
report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution. Each such 
amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the report, may be offered 
only by a Member designated in the report, shall be considered as read, shall be 
debatable for the time specified in the report equally divided and controlled by 
the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment, and shall not 
be subject to a demand for division of the question. All points of order against 
such amendments are waived except those arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule 
XXI. At the conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the Committee 
shall rise and report the bill to the House with such amendments as may have 
been adopted. 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.  The Chair may entertain a motion that the Committee rise only if 
offered by the chair of the Committee on Financial Services or his designee. The 
Chair may not entertain a motion to strike out the enacting words of the bill 
(as described in clause 9 of rule XVIII).
    Sec. 3.  It shall be in order at any time through the legislative day of 
June 11, 2010, for the Speaker to entertain motions that the House suspend the 
rules. The Speaker or her designee shall consult with the Minority Leader or his 
designee on the designation of any matter for consideration pursuant to this 
section.
