  (Mr. SESSIONS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. Speaker, this afternoon a ``Dear Colleague'' letter 
will be sent to all Members informing them that the Committee on Rules 
is planning to meet the week of February 14 to grant a rule for the 
consideration of H.R. 1987, the Fair Access to Indemnity and 
Reimbursement Act.

  The Committee on Rules may grant a rule which would require that 
amendments be preprinted in the Congressional Record. In this case, 
amendments must be preprinted prior to their consideration 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 their amendments comply with the 
rules of the House.
