What This Bill Does
This resolution sets the rules for the House to consider two other measures. It allows the House to debate and vote on a concurrent resolution that criticizes socialism, and a separate resolution to remove a House Member from a committee.
Who It Affects
The House of Representatives and any House Member subject to committee removal proceedings.
Key Provisions
• The House can consider H. Con. Res. 9 (a concurrent resolution denouncing socialism) without procedural objections, with one hour of debate split between the Committee on Financial Services chair and ranking minority member (or their chosen representatives). (Sec. 1)
• The House can consider H. Res. 76 (a resolution removing a Member from a standing committee) without procedural objections, with one hour of debate split between the Committee on Ethics chair and ranking minority member (or their chosen representatives). (Sec. 2)
What Changes
This resolution changes House debate procedures by waiving (removing) standard procedural objections that could normally block or delay consideration of these two measures.
