This resolution sets rules for how the House will consider H.R. 1689. It says that, immediately after the resolution is adopted, the House will take up H.R. 1689. All points of order against considering the bill are waived. An amendment in the nature of a substitute described in the resolution is treated as adopted, and the bill as amended is considered as read. The resolution limits debate to one hour, equally divided and controlled by the majority and minority leaders or their designees, and allows one motion to recommit. It also says the Clerk must send a message to the Senate that the House passed H.R. 1689 within one week of passage. The substitute text requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status until the date that is three months after January 20, 2029. The resolution also says clause 1(c) of House rule XIX and clause 8 of rule XX do not apply to consideration of H.R. 1689.
If the House adopts this resolution, the House will vote on a bill that would require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate Haiti for temporary protected status until three months after January 20, 2029. The resolution sets the debate time and other procedures the House will follow while considering that bill.
