                        Wednesday, June 20, 2018

  Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. Speaker, the Rules Committee report (H. Rept. 115-
766) to accompany House Resolution 949 should have included in its 
waiver of all points of order against consideration of H.R. 6 a 
disclosure of the following violation:

       Clause 12(a)(1) of rule XXI, requiring a comparative print 
     to be made publicly available prior to consideration of a 
     bill amending or repealing statutes to show, by typographical 
     device, parts of statute affected. While the waiver is 
     necessary because the document was not available prior to 
     consideration of the bill, it is important to note that it 
     was available before the vote on final passage.

                          ____________________
