Waiving the Rules Disclosure, Transparency, and Accountability Act

HR 7345, the Waiving the Rules Disclosure, Transparency, and Accountability Act, modifies House procedures for handling regular appropriations bills. It prevents the House from considering rules that waive a specific procedural requirement (Section 309 of the Congressional Budget Act) without first allowing a floor vote. The bill requires the House Chair to put the question of consideration to the floor, with 10 minutes of debate for both the point-of-order initiator and an opponent, before deciding. This change applies directly to House procedures for appropriations bills, ensuring transparency in how rules affecting budget deadlines are approved. It does not alter funding levels or policy content but changes the legislative process for budget-related rules.
