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

House would set special rules to quickly vote on a major budget bill.

This resolution would create special rules for the House of Representatives to consider H.R. 1, a bill using a fast-track budget process. It would limit debate to two hours and prevent many challenges, making it easier and faster for the House to pass H.R. 1. This means House members would have less time to debate or offer changes.

What Would Change

Today, H.R. 1 would face standard House rules, allowing for more debate, more amendments, and more opportunities for members to raise procedural challenges. If this resolution passes, H.R. 1 would be considered under special, expedited rules, including only two hours of debate, a pre-adopted amendment, and waived procedural challenges, making its passage faster.
