        year ending September 30, 2010, 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. 2892) making 
appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security for the fiscal 
year ending September 30, 2010, 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 chair 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 or 5 of rule 
XXI are waived. Notwithstanding clause 11 of rule XVIII, except as 
provided in section 2, no amendment shall be in order except: (1) the 
amendment printed in part A of the report of the Committee on Rules 
accompanying this resolution; (2) the amendments printed in part B of 
the report of the Committee on Rules; (3) not to exceed four of the 
amendments printed in part C of the report of the Committee on Rules if 
offered by Representative Flake of Arizona or his designee; and (4) not 
to exceed one of the amendments printed in part D of the report of the 
Committee on Rules if offered by Representative Campbell of California 
or his designee. Each such amendment shall be considered as read, shall 
be debatable for 10 minutes equally divided and controlled by the 
proponent and an opponent, and shall not be subject to a demand for 
division of the question in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. 
All points of order against such amendments are waived except those 
arising under clause 9 or 10 of rule XXI and except that an amendment 
printed in part B, C, or D of the report of the Committee on Rules may 
be offered only at the appropriate point in the reading. 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. In case of sundry amendments reported from the 
Committee, the question of their adoption shall be put to the House en 
gros and without intervening demand for division of the question. 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.  After consideration of the bill for amendment, the chair 
and ranking minority member of the Committee on Appropriations or their 
designees each may offer one pro forma amendment to the bill for the 
purpose of debate, which shall be controlled by the proponent.
    Sec. 3.  The Chair may entertain a motion that the Committee rise 
only if offered by the chair of the Committee on Appropriations 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. 4.  During consideration of H.R. 2892, the Chair may reduce to 
two minutes the minimum time for electronic voting under clause 6 of 
rule XVIII and clauses 8 and 9 of rule XX.
