     NOTIFICATION REGARDING FILING OF AMENDMENTS TO H.R. 4822, THE 
                    CONGRESSIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY ACT

  (Mr. DERRICK asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute).
  Mr. DERRICK. Mr. Speaker, this is to notify Members of the House of 
the Rules Committee's plans regarding H.R. 4822, the Congressional 
Accountability Act. The committee is planning to meet the week of 
August 1, 1994, to take testimony and grant a rule on the bill.
  In order to assure timely consideration of the bill on the floor, the 
Rules Committee is considering a rule that may limit the offering of 
amendments.
  Any Member who is contemplating an amendment to H.R. 4822 should 
submit, to the Rules Committee in H-312 in the Capitol, 55 copies of 
the amendment and a brief explanation of the amendment no later than 5 
p.m., on Tuesday, August 2.
  The Rules Committee is contemplating making in order as base text the 
bill as amended by the Committees on House Administration and Rules. 
That text will be available in the House Administration and Rules 
Committee offices, as well as in the legislative counsel office, after 
2 p.m. today.
  We appreciate the cooperation of all Members in this effort to be 
fair and orderly in granting a rule for H.R. 4822.
