Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 5931) to provide for the

                          Committee on Rules.

    Resolved, That at any time after 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. 5931) to provide for the 
prohibition on cash payments to the Government of Iran, 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. 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 Foreign Affairs. After general debate the bill 
shall be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule. In lieu 
of the amendment in the nature of a substitute recommended by the 
Committee on Foreign Affairs now printed in the bill, it shall be in 
order to consider as an original bill for the purpose of amendment 
under the five-minute rule an amendment in the nature of a substitute 
consisting of the text of Rules Committee Print 114-64. That amendment 
in the nature of a substitute shall be considered as read. All points 
of order against that amendment in the nature of a substitute are 
waived. No amendment to that 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 in the House or in the Committee of the Whole. All points of 
order against such amendments are waived. 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. Any Member may demand a separate vote in the House on any 
amendment adopted in the Committee of the Whole to the bill or to the 
amendment in the nature of a substitute made in order as original text. 
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 requirement of clause 6(a) of rule XIII for a two-
thirds vote to consider a report from the Committee on Rules on the 
same day it is presented to the House is waived with respect to any 
resolution reported through the legislative day of September 27, 2016, 
relating to a measure making or continuing appropriations for the 
fiscal year ending September 30, 2017.
