                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    Although the resolution waives all points of order against

points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in the bill, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    Section 4 of the resolution includes a waiver of all points 
of order against consideration of a July 4th adjournment 
resolution. While adjournment resolutions are ordinarily 
privileged, a point of order could be raised against the July 
4th district work period adjournment resolution for failure to 
comply with section 309 of the Congressional Budget Act. 
Section 309 prohibits the House from adjourning for more than 
three days in July unless the House has completed action on all 
appropriations bills. Since the House has not yet completed all 
action on appropriations bills, this provision is necessary.
