 ANNOUNCEMENT BY COMMITTEE ON RULES REGARDING AMENDMENTS TO H.R. 748, 
             THE CHILD INTERSTATE ABORTION NOTIFICATION ACT

  Mr. DREIER. Mr. Speaker, the Committee on Rules may meet next week to 
grant a rule which could limit the amendment process for floor 
consideration of H.R. 748, the Child Interstate Abortion Notification 
Act, which I suspect will be discussed by my friends, the gentleman 
from Maryland (Mr. Hoyer) and the gentleman from Texas (Mr. DeLay), in 
just a moment.
  Any Member wishing to offer an amendment should submit 55 copies of 
the amendment and one copy of a brief explanation of the amendment to 
the Committee on Rules in room H-312 of the Capitol by noon on Tuesday, 
April 26, 2005. Members should draft their amendments to the bill as 
reported by the Committee on the Judiciary by April 13, 2005. Members 
are advised that the report of the Committee on the Judiciary was filed 
today, and Members are also advised that the text of the reported bill 
should be available for their review on the Web sites of the Committee 
on the Judiciary and the Committee on Rules by Friday, April 22, 2005.
  Members should use the Office of Legislative Counsel to ensure that 
their amendments are drafted in the most appropriate format and should 
check with the Office of the Parliamentarian to be certain their 
amendments comply with the rules of the House.
