115TH CONGRESS REPORT
1st Session HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 115-60
PROVIDING FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL (H.R. 1430) TO PROHIBIT
THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY FROM PROPOSING, FINAL-
IZING, OR DISSEMINATING REGULATIONS OR ASSESSMENTS BASED
UPON SCIENCE THAT IS NOT TRANSPARENT OR REPRODUCIBLE
MARCH 27, 2017.-Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed
Mr. WOODALL, from the Committee on Rules,
submitted the following
REPORT
[To accompany H. Res. 229]
The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration House
Resolution 229, by a record vote of 8 to 3, report the same to the
House with the recommendation that the resolution be adopted.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION
The resolution provides for consideration of H.R. 1430, the HON-
EST Act, under a closed rule. The resolution provides one hour of
debate equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking mi-
nority member of the Committee on Science, Space, and Tech-
nology. The resolution waives all points of order against consider-
ation of the bill. The resolution provides that the bill shall be con-
sidered as read. The resolution waives all points of order against
provisions in the bill. The resolution provides one motion to recom-
mit.
EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS
The waiver of all points of order against consideration of the bill
includes a waiver of clause 3(d)(1) of rule XIII, which requires the
inclusion of a committee cost estimate. It is important to note that
while a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) cost estimate was not
available at the time the Committee filed its report, the Committee
intends to submit the estimate to the Congressional Record when
it becomes available.
Although the rule waives all points of order against provisions in
the bill, the Committee is not aware of any points of order. The
waiver is prophylactic in nature.
