R E P O R T
[To accompany H. Res. 849]
The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration
House Resolution 849, by a record vote of 8 to 4, 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. 5665, the
Combating International Islamophobia Act, 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 Foreign Affairs or their designees. The resolution
waives all points of order against consideration of the bill.
The resolution provides that an amendment in the nature of a
substitute consisting of the text of Rules Committee Print 117-
23, modified by the amendment printed in this report, 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.
EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS
The waiver of all points of order against consideration of
the bill includes waivers of the following:
--Clause 4 of rule XIII, which prohibits the consideration
of a measure or matter reported by a committee until the
proposed text of the report has been available for 72 hours.
--Clause 3(d) of rule XIII, which requires the inclusion of
committee cost estimate in a committee report. A CBO cost
estimate on H.R. 5665 was not available at the time the
Committee on Foreign Affairs filed its report.
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.
