                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the motion includes waivers of the following:
           Clause 7 of rule XVI, which requires that no 
        motion or proposition on a subject different from that 
        under consideration shall be admitted under color of 
        amendment.
           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.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.J. Res. 75 includes a waiver of clause 11 of rule XXI, which 
prohibits consideration of a bill or joint resolution which has 
not been reported by a committee until such measure has been 
available to Members, Delegates, and the Resident Commissioner 
for 72 hours.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in H.J. Res. 75, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 6968 includes waivers of the following:
           Clause 11 of rule XXI, which prohibits 
        consideration of a bill or joint resolution which has 
        not been reported by a committee until such measure has 
        been available to Members, Delegates, and the Resident 
        Commissioner for 72 hours.
           Clause 12 of rule XXI, which prohibits 
        consideration of a bill pursuant to a special order of 
        business reported by the Committee on Rules that has 
        not been reported by a committee.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in the H.R. 6968, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
H.R. 7007 includes waivers of the following:
           Clause 9 of rule XXI, which requires a list 
        of all earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited 
        tariff benefits contained in the measure, or a 
        certification that the measure does not contain any of 
        those items.
           Clause 11 of rule XXI, which prohibits 
        consideration of a bill or joint resolution which has 
        not been reported by a committee until such measure has 
        been available to Members, Delegates, and the Resident 
        Commissioner for 72 hours.
           Clause 12 of rule XXI, which prohibits 
        consideration of a bill pursuant to a special order of 
        business reported by the Committee on Rules that has 
        not been reported by a committee. This waiver is 
        technical in nature. Clause 12 of rule XXI has an 
        exception for bills that contain an emergency 
        designation under the Balanced Budget and Emergency 
        Deficit Control Act. These designations were 
        effectively overridden by the new emergency authority 
        in S. Con. Res. 14, which H.R. 7007 invokes in its 
        emergency spending designation.
    Although the resolution waives all points of order against 
provisions in H.R. 7007, the Committee is not aware of any 
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
