with respect to deferred action for aliens not lawfully present in the 
United States, and for other purposes, under a closed rule. The rule 
provides one hour of debate equally divided and controlled by the chair 
and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Judiciary. The rule 
waives all points of order against consideration of the bill. The rule 
provides that the amendment printed in Part B of the Rules Committee 
report shall be considered as adopted and the bill, as amended, shall 
be considered as read. The rule waives all points of order against 
provisions in the bill, as amended. The rule provides one motion to 
recommit with or without instructions. In section 3, the rule strikes 
section 2 of House Resolution 700 and replaces it with the following: 
``Sec. 2. It shall be in order at any time on the legislative day of 
August 1, 2014, for the Speaker to entertain motions that the House 
suspend the rules, as though under clause 1 of rule XV, relating to a 
measure addressing missile defense of Israel.''. Testimony was heard
