    The resolution waives all points of order against the 
conference report to accompany H.R. 1268, Emergency 
Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the conference report includes a waiver of clause 4(a) of rule 
XIII (requiring a three-day layover of the committee report), 
which is necessary because the conference report (H. Rept. 108-

conference report may be considered by the House as early as 
Thursday, June 9, 2005.
