                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 141]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 141, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

                summary of provisions of the resolution

    The resolution provides for consideration in the House of 
H.R. 622, the Hope for Children Act, under a closed rule. The 
rule provides one hour of debate equally divided and controlled 
by the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
Ways and Means. The rule waives all points of order against 
consideration of the bill.
    The rule provides that the amendment recommended by the 
Committee on Ways and Means now printed in the bill shall be 
considered as adopted. Finally, the rule provides one motion to 
recommit with or without instructions.
    The waiver of all points of order includes a waiver of 
clause 4(a) of rule XIII (requiring a three-day layover of the 
committee report) which is needed because the report was not 
filed until Tuesday, May 15, and the bill may be considered by 
the House as early as Wednesday, May 16.
