On Ordering the Previous Question
Bill Analysis
H.Res. 1115 is a House procedural measure (a “rule”) that sets the terms for floor consideration of three specific bills and temporarily alters how the House may consider certain other legislation.
Covered bills and scope
- H.R. 556 – Prohibits the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture from banning the use of lead ammunition or lead fishing tackle on specified federal lands and waters under their jurisdiction.
- H.R. 1958 – Amends the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to make noncitizens convicted of defrauding the U.S. government or unlawfully receiving public benefits both inadmissible (barred from entry) and deportable.
- H.R. 4638 – Amends the INA to make noncitizens convicted of harming animals used in law enforcement (e.g., police dogs, horses) inadmissible and deportable.
Procedural authorities and structure
H.Res. 1115 is reported by the House Rules Committee and:- Specifies how much debate time is allowed on each bill and how it is divided between majority and minority managers.
- Identifies which amendments, if any, are in order, their sequence, and debate time.
- Waives certain points of order under House rules or the Congressional Budget Act, allowing the bills to be considered even if they might otherwise be vulnerable to procedural objections.
- Provides for a single rule covering all three bills (a “structured” or “closed” rule, depending on the amendment terms set in the resolution).
Motions to suspend the rules
The resolution also “relates to consideration of motions to suspend the rules,” typically by:- Temporarily expanding or limiting when suspension motions can be offered, or
- Adjusting the types of measures that may be considered under suspension (which requires a two‑thirds vote but restricts amendments).
Affected entities and timelines
- Agencies: Department of the Interior, Department of Agriculture, Department of Homeland Security (immigration enforcement), and Department of Justice (prosecutions underlying INA consequences).
- Beneficiaries/regulated: Hunters and anglers on federal lands; noncitizens with specified criminal convictions; law enforcement agencies using animals.
- The resolution’s procedural authorities apply only to the specified legislative days; it does not itself change substantive law or appropriate funds.
