Providing for the consideration of the bill (H.R. 1579) to prohibit Members of Congress from purchasing or selling certain investments, and for other purposes.

HRES 899 is a procedural resolution that sets the rules for debating H.R. 1579, the bill prohibiting Members of Congress from buying or selling certain investments. It allows the House to immediately consider H.R. 1579 without amendments, waives objections to the bill’s provisions, and limits debate to one hour (split equally between committee leaders). This resolution does not change the policy itself but streamlines the legislative process for the stock trading bill. The resolution was introduced by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez on February 1, 2022.
