Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 4016) making appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3633) to provide for a system of regulation of the offer and sale of digital commodities by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and for other purposes; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 1919) to amend the Federal Reserve Act to prohibit the Federal reserve banks from offering certain products or services directly to an individual, to prohibit the use of central bank digital currency for monetary policy, and for other purposes; providing for consideration of the bill (S. 1582) to provide for the regulation of payment stablecoins, and for other purposes; and waiving a requirement of clause 6(a) of rule XIII with respect to consideration of certain resolutions reported from the Committee on Rules.

This resolution establishes the procedural rules for the House to consider H.R. 4016, the Department of Defense Appropriations bill for fiscal year 2026. It allows the Speaker to declare the House resolved into the Committee of the Whole, waives all points of order against the bill's consideration, and dispenses with its first reading. General debate is limited to one hour, equally divided, and the bill will be considered for amendment under the five-minute rule, with specific waivers for points of order against provisions.

For H.R. 4016, only amendments printed in Part A of the Rules Committee report, en bloc amendments, and pro forma amendments are in order. Amendments from Part A will be considered in a specific order, offered only by designated Members, and are not subject to further amendment or division of the question. The chair and ranking minority member of the Appropriations Committee may offer up to 10 pro forma amendments each for debate purposes, and en bloc amendments can be offered, also with specific debate limits and restrictions.

The resolution also sets the terms for considering three other significant bills: H.R. 3633 (digital commodities regulation), H.R. 1919 (Federal Reserve and CBDC restrictions), and S. 1582 (stablecoin regulation). For these bills, all points of order against their consideration and provisions are waived, and they will be considered as read, often with a substitute amendment adopted. Each bill has specific debate time allocations, typically one hour, equally divided among relevant committee leaders, and allows for one motion to recommit. A two-thirds vote requirement for a Rules Committee report related to H.R. 4, concerning budget rescissions, is waived until July 18, 2025.
