Passed One Chamber

Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.

House would set special rules to consider bills on overdraft fees, digital payments, court orders, and voter ID.

This resolution would create specific rules for how the House of Representatives debates and votes on four important pieces of legislation. These include bills that would disapprove new rules about bank overdraft fees and digital payment apps, limit federal court powers, and require proof of citizenship to register to vote. It also would adopt one House resolution and set aside another.

What Would Change

Currently, the joint resolutions (S.J. Res. 18, S.J. Res. 28) and bills (H.R. 1526, H.R. 22) would be considered under the House's standard rules, which allow for various procedural challenges and more flexible debate. House Resolution 293 and House Resolution 164 would also retain their current status. If this resolution is adopted, these specific legislative items would be considered under special, expedited rules. This means most procedural challenges would be waived, debate time would be limited to one hour for each, and only specific motions would be allowed. Additionally, House Resolution 293 would be formally adopted, and House Resolution 164 would be set aside.
