Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 7007) to govern on behalf of the American people.
HRES 986 is a procedural resolution that sets the rules for the House to consider H.R. 7007. It waives all objections to the bill, allows for a specific amendment process (if submitted by the ranking minority member of the Rules Committee), and requires a one-hour debate period equally divided between the majority and minority leaders. The resolution also ensures the bill is treated as read after amendments and mandates that the House transmit passage to the Senate within three days. This resolution does not change H.R. 7007's content but streamlines its legislative path.
