                              R E P O R T

                      [To accompany H. Res. 1495]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 1495, 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 of H.R. 5618, the 
``Restoration of Emergency Unemployment Compensation Act of 
2010,'' under a closed rule. The resolution provides 1 hour of 
debate equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking 
minority member of the Committee on Ways and Means.
    The resolution waives all points of order against 
consideration of the bill except those arising under clause 9 
or 10 of rule XXI. The amendment printed in this report shall 
be considered as adopted. The resolution provides that the 
bill, as amended, shall be considered as read. The resolution 
waives all points of order against the bill, as amended. This 
waiver does not affect the point of order available under 
clause 9 of rule XXI (regarding earmark disclosure). The 
resolution provides one motion to recommit with or without 
instructions. Finally, the resolution waives clause 6(a) of 
rule XIII (requiring a two-thirds vote to consider a rule on 
the same day it is reported from the Rules Committee) against 
certain resolutions reported from the Rules Committee. The 
resolution applies the waiver to any resolution reported 
through the legislative day of July 3, 2010.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
consideration of the bill (except those arising under clause 9 
or 10 of rule XXI), the Committee is not aware of any points of 
order. The waiver is prophylactic.
    Although the rule waives all points of order against the 
bill, as amended, the Committee is not aware of any points of 
order against the bill. The waiver of all points of order is
