                              R E P O R T

                       [To accompany H. Res. 670]

    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 670, by a record vote of 7 to 3, 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. 4719, the 
Fighting Hunger Incentive Act of 2014, under a closed rule. The 
resolution provides one 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. The resolution 
provides that the amendment in the nature of a substitute 
consisting of the text of Rules Committee Print 113-51 shall be 
considered as adopted and the bill, as amended, shall be 
considered as read. The resolution waives all points of order 
against provisions in the bill, as amended. The resolution 
provides one motion to recommit with or without instructions.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the bill includes a waiver of the following:
     Section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act, which 
prohibits consideration of legislation within the jurisdiction 
of the Committee on the Budget unless referred to or reported 
by the Budget Committee; and
     Section 311 of the Congressional Budget Act, which 
prohibits consideration of legislation that would cause 
revenues to be less than the level of total revenues for the 
first fiscal year or for the total of that first fiscal year 
and the ensuing fiscal years for which allocations are 
provided.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in the bill, as amended, the Committee is not aware 
of any points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
