RESOLUTION
Providing for consideration of the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res.
312) revising the congressional budget for the United States Government
for fiscal year 2008, establishing the congressional budget for the
United States Government for fiscal year 2009, and setting forth
appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2010 through 2013.
Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 2(b) of rule XVIII, declare the
House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the State of
the Union for consideration of the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res.
312) revising the congressional budget for the United States Government
for fiscal year 2008, establishing the congressional budget for the
United States Government for fiscal year 2009, and setting forth
appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2010 through 2013. The
first reading of the concurrent resolution shall be dispensed with. All
points of order against consideration of the concurrent resolution are
waived. General debate shall not exceed four hours, with three hours
confined to the congressional budget equally divided and controlled by
the chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Budget
and one hour on the subject of economic goals and policies equally
divided and controlled by Representative Maloney of New York and
Representative Saxton of New Jersey or their designees. After general
debate the concurrent resolution shall be considered for amendment
under the five-minute rule. The concurrent resolution shall be
considered as read. No amendment shall be in order except those printed
in the report of the Committee on Rules accompanying this resolution.
Each amendment may be offered only in the order printed in the report,
may be offered only by a Member designated in the report, shall be
considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified in the
report equally divided and controlled by a proponent and an opponent,
and shall not be subject to amendment. All points of order against the
amendments printed in the report are waived except that the adoption of
an amendment in the nature of a substitute shall constitute the
conclusion of consideration of the concurrent resolution for amendment.
After the conclusion of consideration of the concurrent resolution for
amendment, the Committee shall rise and report the concurrent
resolution to the House with such amendment as may have been adopted.
The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the concurrent
resolution and amendments thereto to final adoption without intervening
motion except amendments offered by the chairman of the Committee on
the Budget pursuant to section 305(a)(5) of the Congressional Budget
Act of 1974 to achieve mathematical consistency. The concurrent
resolution shall not be subject to a demand for division of the
question of its adoption.
Sec. 2. After a motion that the Committee rise has been rejected
on a legislative day, the Chair may entertain another such motion on
that day only if offered by the chairman of the Committee on the Budget
or the Majority Leader or a designee. After a motion to strike out the
resolving words of the concurrent resolution (as described in clause 9
of rule XVIII) has been rejected, the Chair may not entertain another
such motion during further consideration of the concurrent resolution.
Sec. 3. During consideration in the House of House Concurrent
Resolution 312 pursuant to this resolution, notwithstanding the
operation of the previous question, the Chair may postpone further
consideration of the concurrent resolution to such time as may be
designated by the Speaker.
Sec. 4. After adoption of House Concurrent Resolution 312, it
shall be in order to take from the Speaker's table Senate Concurrent
Resolution 70 and to consider the Senate concurrent resolution in the
House. All points of order against the Senate concurrent resolution and
against its consideration are waived. It shall be in order to move to
strike all after the resolving clause of the Senate concurrent
resolution and to insert in lieu thereof the provisions of House
Concurrent Resolution 312 as adopted by the House. All points of order
against that motion are waived.
