Summary

The resolution orders the House to move straight to debating H.Res. 997, which seeks to make the chamber more responsive to its members. It removes specific procedural barriers, limits debate to one hour split evenly between majority and minority leaders, and allows a designated amendment from the ranking minority member of the Rules Committee. This speeds up the consideration of the underlying resolution.
