Transparency & AccountabilitySets up a quick House vote on H.R. 7007 — one hour of debate, no floor amendments.
Transparency & Accountability
Adopting this resolution would send H.R. 7007 straight to the floor for a final vote. Two House rules that let leaders postpone a scheduled vote would not apply.
If the House passes H.R. 7007, the Clerk must tell the Senate within three calendar days. That deadline is the one part of this resolution that applies after the vote is over.
Debate would run one hour, split evenly between the two parties. The two top members of the Judiciary Committee would hand out that time.
No member could offer changes on the floor. Instead, the top Judiciary Committee member from the minority party could file one rewrite. It would count as adopted.
Members can normally object that a bill breaks House rules. This resolution blocks those objections, both against taking up the bill and against what is in it.
More about this bill
On its own, this resolution would not change anything in your daily life. It sets the terms for a House vote on a separate bill, H.R. 7007. If the House adopts it, members would take up that bill right away. Debate would be capped at one hour, split evenly between the two parties. House leaders could not put the vote off to a later day. The resolution also sets aside objections that the bill breaks House rules. Members could not offer their own amendments on the floor. The minority party's top member on the Judiciary Committee could file one rewrite. It would count as adopted if filed a day ahead. One motion to send the bill back to committee would still be allowed. If the House passes it, the Clerk would have three days to notify the Senate.
