H. Res. 150

                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                          May 16, 1997.
    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. 1385) to consolidate, coordinate, and improve employment, training, 
literacy, and vocational rehabilitation programs in the United States, and for 
other purposes. The first reading of the bill shall be dispensed with. 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 Education and the Workforce. 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 
Education and the Workforce now printed in the bill. The committee amendment in 
the nature of a substitute shall be considered by division rather than by 
section. Each division 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 numbered 1 pursuant to clause 6 
of rule XXIII, if offered by Representative McKeon or his designee. That 
amendment shall be considered as read, may amend portions of the bill not yet 
read for amendment, 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. If that amendment is adopted, the bill, as 
amended, shall be considered as the original bill for the purpose of further 
amendment. During consideration of the bill for further 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. 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.
