consideration in the House of the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 197) 
waiving certain enrollment requirements with respect to any bill or 
joint resolution of the One Hundred Fourth Congress making general or

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from Ohio?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the joint resolution, as follows:

                             H.J. Res. 197

       Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

     title 1, United States Code, are waived with respect to the 
     printing (on parchment or otherwise) of the enrollment of any 
     appropriation measure of the One Hundred Fourth Congress 
     presented to the President after the enactment of this joint 
     resolution.
       (b) Certification of Enrollment by Committee on House 
     Oversight.--The enrollment of any such measure shall be in 
     such form as the Committee on House Oversight of the House of

     SEC. 2. APPROPRIATION MEASURE DEFINED.

       For purposes of this joint resolution, the term 
     ``appropriation measure'' means a bill or joint resolution
