[To accompany H. Res. 28]

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION
The resolution provides for consideration of H.R. 264, the
Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act,
2019; H.R. 265, the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and
Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act,
2019; H.R. 266, the Department of the Interior, Environment,
and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019; and H.R. 267,
the Department of Transportation, Housing and Urban
Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2019;
each under a closed rule. The resolution provides one hour of
debate on each bill equally divided and controlled by the chair
and ranking minority member of the Committee on Appropriations
or their respective designees. The resolution waives all points
of order against consideration of each bill. The resolution
provides that each bill shall be considered as read. The
resolution waives all points of order against provisions in
each bill. The resolution provides each bill one motion to
recommit.
The resolution waives the requirement of clause 6(a) of
rule XIII for a two-thirds vote to consider a report from the
Committee on Rules on the same day it is presented to the House
with respect to any resolution reported through the legislative
day of January 15, 2019, relating to a measure making or
continuing appropriations for the fiscal year ending September
30, 2019.
EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS
The waiver of all points of order against consideration of
H.R. 264, H.R. 265, H.R. 266, and H.R. 267 includes waivers of
the following for each bill:
Clause 11 of rule XXI, prohibiting the
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. While the text of each bill
was made publicly available in searchable form at 9:00
am on January 6, 2019, the waiver of clause 11 of rule
XXI is necessary because the bills could not be
formally introduced until the House convened for
business on January 8, 2019.
Clause 12(a)(1) of rule XXI, which prohibits
consideration of a bill unless there is a searchable
electronic comparative print that shows how the bill
proposes to change current law.
The waiver of all points of order against consideration
additionally includes a waiver of the following for both H.R.
264 and H.R. 266:
Section 302(f)(1) of the Congressional
Budget Act, which prohibits consideration of
legislation providing new budget authority in excess of
a 302(b) allocation of such authority.
Although the resolution waives all points of order against
provisions in H.R. 264, H.R. 265, H.R. 266, and H.R. 267, the
Committee is not aware of any points of order. The waiver is
prophylactic in nature.
