                               RESOLUTION


 
      Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2799) making 
appropriations for the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State, the 
 Judiciary, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 
                   30, 2004, and for other purposes.

    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 bill (H.R. 2799) making 
appropriations for the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State, the 
Judiciary, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 
30, 2004, and for other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall 
be dispensed with. All points of order against consideration of the 
bill are waived. General debate shall be confined to the bill and shall 
not exceed one hour equally divided and controlled by the chairman and 
ranking minority member of the Committee on Appropriations. After 
general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the 
five-minute rule. Points of order against provisions in the bill for 
failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI are waived except as 
follows: the first proviso under the heading ``National 
Telecommunications and Information Administration, Salaries and 
Expenses''; in section 201, all after ``prescribed by the Act''; the 
final proviso under the heading ``Federal Communications Commission, 
Salaries and Expenses''; the final proviso under the heading ``Federal 
Trade Commission, Salaries and Expenses''; section 603; and section 
607(a) and (b). Where points of order are waived against part of a 
paragraph or section, points of order against a provision in another 
part of such paragraph or section may be made only against such 
provision and not against the entire paragraph or section. During 
consideration of the bill for amendment, the Chairman of the Committee 
of the Whole may accord priority in recognition on the basis of whether 
the Member offering an amendment has caused it to be printed in the 
portion of the Congressional Record designated for that purpose in 
clause 8 of rule XVIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as 
read. At the conclusion of consideration of the bill for amendment the 
Committee shall rise and report the bill to the House with such 
amendments as may have been adopted. The previous question shall be 
considered as ordered on the bill and amendments thereto to final 
passage without intervening motion except one motion to recommit with 
or without instructions.
