Mr. WOODALL. Mr. Speaker, the Committee on Rules is scheduled to meet
the week of April 4 to grant a rule, which could limit the amendment
process for floor consideration of H.R. 910, the Energy Tax Prevention
Act of 2011.
Any Member wishing to offer an amendment must submit an electronic
copy of the amendment and a description via the Rules Committee's Web
site. Members must also submit 30 hard copies of the amendment, one
copy of a brief explanation of the amendment, and an amendment log-in
form to the Rules Committee in room H-312 of the Capitol by 10 a.m. on
Tuesday, April 5, 2011. Both electronic and hard copies must be
received by the date and time specified. Members should draft their
amendments to the text of the bills as ordered reported by the
Committee on Energy and Commerce, which are available on the Rules
Committee Web site.
Members should use the Office of Legislative Counsel to ensure that
their amendments are drafted in the most appropriate format. Members
should also check with the Office of the Parliamentarian, the Committee
on the Budget, and the Congressional Budget Office to be certain their
amendments comply with the rules of the House and the Congressional
Budget Act.
If Members have any questions, Mr. Speaker, I would encourage Members
to contact me or members of the Rules Committee staff.
