ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING AMENDMENT PROCESS FOR H.R. 1987, FAIR ACCESS TO 
                    INDEMNITY AND REIMBURSEMENT ACT

  Mr. HASTINGS of Washington. Mr. Speaker, this afternoon a ``Dear 
Colleague'' will be sent to all Members informing them that the 
Committee on Rules is planning to meet the week of October 25 to grant 
a rule for consideration of H.R. 1987, the Fair Access to Indemnity and 
Reimbursement Act.
  The Committee on Rules may grant a rule which will require that 
amendments be preprinted in the Congressional Record. In this case, 
amendments must be preprinted prior to consideration of the bill on the 
floor.
  Members should use the Office of Legislative Counsel to ensure that 
their amendments are properly drafted and should check with the Office 
of the Parliamentarian to be certain that their amendments comply with 
the rules of the House.
