Referred to the House Committee on Rules.
This House resolution sets the rules for considering H.R. 4213, the Department of Homeland Security appropriations bill for FY2026.
It immediately brings the bill up, adopts an amendment-in-the-nature-of-a-substitute (H.R. 7481), waives points of order, limits debate to one hour, allows one motion to recommit, suspends two House rule clauses, and directs the Clerk to notify the Senate within three days of passage.
As a House privileged resolution governing floor procedure, it does not become law; it is likely to pass the House but is not a statute.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this resolution is a standard, well-specified House floor-consideration rule: it clearly prescribes the procedures for immediate consideration of H.R. 4213, including adoption of a substitute, waiver of points of order, debate limitations, and a single motion to recommit.
Progressive worries waivers block oversight and civil‑liberties fixes.
Progressive worries waivers block oversight and civil‑liberties fixes.
This persona sees the resolution as a procedural vehicle that expedites DHS funding but restricts floor debate and points of order.
They are cautiously concerned the adopted substitute and waived rules may block amendments protecting immigrants, civil liberties, or oversight; support depends on the substitute's content.
This persona views the resolution as a typical closed rule aimed at efficient consideration of an important appropriations bill.
They appreciate the orderly schedule and one motion to recommit, but want clarity on what H.R. 7481 changes and note that waiving rules concentrates decision-making.
This persona is inclined to favor rapid, disciplined consideration of a DHS funding bill to avoid gaps in security funding.
They generally support waiving procedural delays, but want assurance the substitute does not add excessive spending or weaken enforcement priorities.
