What.

  • This is a procedural resolution that sets the terms for House consideration of H.R. 4553 (energy and water development appropriations for fiscal year 2026).
  • The resolution also governs House consideration of three Congressional Review Act disapproval resolutions targeting Bureau of Land Management resource management plans: H.J. Res. 104 (Miles City Field Office), H.J. Res. 105 (North Dakota Field Office), and H.J. Res. 106 (Central Yukon).
  • H.R. 4553 receives consideration under a structured rule; the three disapproval resolutions receive consideration under a closed rule.
  • The resolution provides for one hour of general debate and a motion to recommit for each measure.
  • The resolution adopts H. Res. 668 and H. Res. 605, and lays H. Res. 598 on the table.

So what?

  • The structured rule for H.R. 4553 permits amendments under specified procedures; the closed rules for the disapproval resolutions prohibit amendments.
