This resolution establishes the specific procedural rules for the House of Representatives to consider two distinct bills: H.R. 471 and S. 5 . For H.R. 471, which aims to expedite environmental reviews for forest management to reduce fire risk, the resolution waives points of order, limits general debate to one hour, and permits only pre-printed amendments from the Rules Committee report. Similarly, for S. 5, a bill requiring the detention of aliens charged with theft, all points of order against its consideration and provisions are waived. Debate on S. 5 is limited to one hour, and only one motion to commit is allowed before final passage. Overall, this resolution streamlines the legislative process for both bills by setting strict debate and amendment parameters.
