This resolution establishes the procedural rules for the House of Representatives to consider H.R. 77 , a bill proposing amendments to chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to allow for en bloc consideration of resolutions disapproving "midnight rules." It makes H.R. 77 immediately in order for consideration, waiving all potential points of order against both the bill's consideration and its specific provisions. The resolution mandates that H.R. 77 be considered as read and orders the previous question on the bill and any amendments to final passage. It allocates one hour of debate , to be equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on the Judiciary, and permits one motion to recommit before a final vote.
