                SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

    The resolution provides for the consideration of the Senate

resolution makes in order a motion offered by the chair of the 
Committee on the Judiciary or his designee that the House

waives all points of order against consideration of the motion. 
The resolution provides that the Senate amendment and the 
motion shall be considered as read. The resolution provides one 
hour of general debate on the motion equally divided and 
controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on the Judiciary or their designees.

                         EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS

    Although the rule waives all points of order against 
consideration of the motion to concur in the Senate amendment 
to H.R. 8404, the Committee is not aware of any points of 
order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
