Providing that section 11 of House Resolution 1224 shall have no force or effect.
Placed on the House Calendar, Calendar No. 74.
This resolution directs the House to treat section 11 of a prior House resolution (H.Res. 1224) as having no force or effect. It is an action taken by the House alone to change how the House handles its own rules or orders. It does not make law that applies outside the House or involve the Senate or the President. It becomes effective only as an internal House decision when the House adopts it.
This is a simple House resolution considered and decided by the House alone; it does not require Senate approval or the President's signature and does not create binding law outside the House.
This House resolution states that section 11 of House Resolution 1224 shall have no force or effect.
It contains no other language or policy directives.
The resolution simply annuls that specific subsection of a prior House resolution.
Text is a House-internal procedural change (not statutory); adoption by the House is plausible but it does not become law in the statutory sense.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a concise, narrowly targeted operational measure that clearly identifies the provision to be nullified and employs a direct mechanism to do so, but it omits contextual explanation and implementation particulars (effective date, retroactivity, treatment of prior actions) that would improve procedural clarity.
Liberals worry about removing protections; conservatives see restored authority.

Their support hinges on demonstrated necessity and reasonable process.
