Pursuant to the provisons of H.Res. 707, H.Res. 211 is amended.
This resolution sets the House floor rules for how three specific measures will be debated and voted on: a joint resolution that would use the Congressional Review Act to disapprove an IRS rule, a bill amending CARES Act fraud time limits, and a continuing appropriations bill. It does not itself change policy or disapprove any rule; it only decides how the House will consider those measures by waiving certain procedural objections, adopting specified committee amendments, and limiting debate. It also includes a provision about how days are counted for a specific presidential national emergency resolution.
All points of order against consideration and against the measures' provisions are waived, the measures are considered as read, and specified committee amendments are treated as adopted. Debate on each measure is limited to one hour equally divided and controlled by the committee chair and ranking minority member (or designees), and only one motion to recommit is permitted; additionally the resolution includes a special rule about counting days for a particular national emergency termination resolution.
H.Res. 211 is a House rules resolution setting procedures for floor consideration of three measures: H.J. Res. 25 (a Congressional Review Act disapproval of an IRS rule on broker reporting for digital-asset sales), H.R. 1156 (an amendment to the CARES Act extending the statute of limitations for certain unemployment-fraud cases), and H.R. 1968 (a continuing resolution and extensions for fiscal year 2025).
The resolution waives points of order, deems listed amendments adopted or the bills as read, limits debate to one hour per item (split evenly), preserves one motion to recommit, and includes a provision affecting how days are counted under the National Emergencies Act for a specific emergency declared February 1, 2025.
Several procedural waivers and adopted amendments are specified in the text.
House consideration is likely; success of the measures in the Senate and enactment (CRA, CR, presidential action) is uncertain and politicized.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a narrowly scoped House special-rule resolution that clearly and specifically prescribes the procedural framework for consideration of three measures and a targeted timing adjustment related to the National Emergencies Act.
Progressives stress tax-enforcement and minority rights concerns; conservatives stress deregulation and speed.
These are examples from the analysis, not a ranked list of the most-affected groups.
Progressives stress tax-enforcement and minority rights concerns; conservatives stress deregulation and speed.
Likely skeptical of the resolution because it fast-tracks a CRA disapproval of an IRS reporting rule and waives points of order and amendments.
Supports the continuing resolution's aim to avoid a shutdown but worries about transparency and tax enforcement rollbacks.
Views the NEA-related timing change with concern about reducing congressional ability to terminate an emergency (impact uncertain).
Generally supportive of orderly floor scheduling and avoiding a shutdown, but cautious about sweeping waivers that curtail debate and points-of-order.
Will weigh the merits of each underlying measure on policy and cost grounds and may seek clarifying information on the NEA timing change.
Likely favorable: expedites disapproval of an IRS rule viewed as burdensome for crypto brokers, advances stronger tools to pursue unemployment fraud, and secures short-term funding to avert a shutdown.
Appreciates procedural waivers that speed floor action.
The NEA calendar exclusion is acceptable if it protects executive emergency posture (interpretation may vary).

The House formally adopted this resolution. A resolution applies only to the House and does not require the other chamber's approval or the President's signature — this vote settles the matter.
A resolution is a formal statement of opinion or decision by the chamber.
Debate was cut short. The House will proceed directly to a vote on the underlying question.
In the House, this ends debate and forces an immediate vote on the main question.
