EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS
The waiver of all points of order against consideration of
H.R. 4901 includes a waiver of clause 3(e)(1) of rule XIII
(``Ramseyer''), requiring a committee report accompanying a
bill amending or repealing statutes to show, by typographical
device, parts of statute affected. The waiver is provided
because the submission provided by the Committee on Oversight
and Government Reform was insufficient to meet the standards
established by the rule in its current form. The Committee on
Rules continues to work with the House Office of Legislative
Counsel and committees to determine the steps necessary to
comply with the updated rule.
Although the resolution waives all points of order against
provisions in H.R. 4901, the Committee is not aware of any
points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
Although the resolution waives all points of order against
consideration of H.J. Res. 88, the Committee is not aware of
any points of order. The waiver is prophylactic in nature.
The waiver of all points of order against provisions in
H.J. Res. 88 includes a waiver of clause 5(a) of rule XXI,
which prohibits a bill or joint resolution carrying a tax or
tariff measure from being reported by a committee not having
jurisdiction to report tax or tariff measures.
