    Mr. Dreier, from the Committee on Rules, reported the following

                               RESOLUTION


 
 Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2) to repeal the United 
 States Housing Act of 1937, deregulate the public housing program and 
the program for rental housing assistance for low-income families, and 
 increase community control over such programs, and for other purposes.

    Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this resolution 
the Speaker may, pursuant to clause 1(b) of rule XXIII, declare the 
House resolved into the Committee of the Whole House on the state of 
the Union for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2) to repeal the United 
States Housing Act of 1937, deregulate the public housing program and 
the program for rental housing assistance for low-income families, and 
increase community control over such programs, and for other purposes. 
The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. Points of order 
against consideration of the bill for failure to comply with clause 
2(l)(6) of rule XI or clause 7(b) of rule XIII 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 Banking and Financial Services. After 
general debate the bill shall be considered for amendment under the 
five-minute rule. It shall be in order to consider as an original bill 
for the purpose of amendment under the five-minute rule the amendment 
in the nature of a substitute recommended by the Committee on Banking 
and Financial Services now printed in the bill. The committee amendment 
in the nature of a substitute shall be considered by title rather than 
by section. Each title shall be considered as read. Points of order 
against the committee amendment in the nature of a substitute for 
failure to comply with clause 5(a) of rule XXI are waived. Before 
consideration of any other amendment it shall be in order to consider 
the amendment printed in the Congressional Record of April 29, 1997, 
pursuant to clause 6 of rule XXIII, if offered by Representative Lazio 
of New York or his designee. That amendment shall be considered as 
read, shall be debatable for ten minutes equally divided and controlled 
by the proponent and an opponent, shall not be subject to amendment, 
and shall not be subject to a demand for division of the question in 
the House or in the Committee of the Whole. All points of order against 
that amendment are waived. If that amendment is adopted, the bill, as 
amended, shall be considered as the original bill for the purpose of 
further amendment. During further 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 6 of rule 
XXIII. Amendments so printed shall be considered as read. The chairman 
of the Committee of the Whole may: (1) postpone until a time during 
further consideration in the Committee of the Whole a request for a 
recorded vote on any amendment; and (2) reduce to five minutes the 
minimum time for electronic voting on any postponed question that 
follows another electronic vote without intervening business: Provided, 
That the minimum time for electronic voting on the first in any series 
of questions shall be fifteen minutes. 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. Any Member may demand a separate vote in the House on any 
amendment adopted in the Committee of the Whole to the bill or to the 
committee amendment in the nature of a substitute made in order as 
original text. 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.
