=======================================================================
PROVIDING FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF H.R. 1664, THE ``KOSOVO AND
SOUTHWEST ASIA EMERGENCY SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 1999''
_______
May 5, 1999.--Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed
_______
Mrs. Myrick, from the Committee on Rules, submitted the following
R E P O R T
[To accompany H. Res. 159]
The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration
House Resolution 159, by a nonrecord vote, report the same to
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be
adopted.
summary of provisions of resolution
The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 1664,
the ``Kosovo and Southwest Asia Emergency Supplemental
Appropriations Act, 1999,'' under an open rule. The rule
provides one hour of general debate divided equally between the
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on
Appropriations.
The rule waives points of order against consideration of
the bill for failure to comply with clause 4 of rule XIII
(requiring a three-day layover of the committee report and
requiring three-day availability of printed hearings on a
general appropriations bill) and section 306 of the
Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (prohibiting consideration of
legislation within the Budget Committee's jurisdiction, unless
reported by the Budget Committee).
The rule waives points of order against provisions in the
bill for failure to comply with clause 2 of rule XXI
(prohibiting unauthorized or legislative appropriations in a
general appropriations bill). The rule provides that before
consideration of any other amendment it shall be in order to
consider the amendments printed in this report.
The rule provides that amendments made in order may be
offered only by a Member designated in the report, shall be
considered as read, shall be debatable for the time specified,
shall not be subject to amendment, and shall not be subject to
a demand for a division of the question in the House or the
Committee of the Whole. The rule waives all points of order
against amendments printed in this report.
The rule waives points of order during consideration of the
bill against amendments for failure to comply with clause 2(e)
of rule XXI (prohibiting non-emergency designatedamendments to
be offered to an appropriations bill containing an emergency
designation).
The rule authorizes the Chair to accord priority in
recognition to Members who have pre-printed their amendments in
the Congressional Record. The rule allows for the Chairman of
the Committee of the Whole to postpone votes during
consideration of the bill, and to reduce voting time to five
minutes on a postponed question if the vote follows a fifteen
minute vote. Finally, the rule provides one motion to recommit
with or without instructions.
The waiver of clause 4 of Rule XIII (requiring a three-day
layover of the committee report and requiring three-day
availability of printed hearings on a general appropriations
bill) against consideration of the bill is necessary because
the report was filed on Tuesday, May 4, and the bill is
scheduled for consideration on the floor as early as Thursday,
May 6. Also, the printed hearings regarding the emergency
appropriations contained in this bill are not available. The
waiver of section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act
(prohibiting consideration of legislation within the Budget
Committee's jurisdiction, unless reported by the Budget
Committee) against consideration of the bill is necessary
because the bill as reported from the Appropriations Committee
contains emergency designations pursuant to the Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985. These provisions fall within the
jurisdiction of the Budget Committee.
The waiver of clause 2 of rule XXI (prohibiting
unauthorized or legislative appropriations in a general
appropriations bill) against provisions in the bill is
necessary because the bill contains 16 provisions which are not
authorized by law and 67 provisions which are legislative in
nature. Many of the legislative changes are technical
corrections to the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 1999. These
provisions are listed on pages 25-29 in the Appropriations
Committee report. The bill also contains both non-emergency and
emergency provisions.
Included in the waiver of all points of order against
amendments printed in this report are waivers for the following
reasons: (1) section 306 of the Congressional Budget Act is
necessary against both the Obey amendment and the Coburn
amendment for the same reason as for consideration of the bill;
(2) clause 2 of rule XXI is necessary for the Obey amendment
for a similar reason that it is waived against provisions in
the bill; and (3) clause 7 of rule XVI (prohibiting nongermane
amendments) is necessary because the Obey amendment contains
the provisions of H.R. 1141, the Hurricane Mitch supplemental,
the provisions of which are not germane to the Kosovo
supplemental.
The waiver of clause 2(e) of rule XXI (prohibiting non-
emergency designated amendments to be offered to an
appropriations bill containing an emergency designation)
against amendments is necessary because the Supplemental
Appropriations bill contains numerous emergency designations
under the Budget Act. Offering an amendment containing an
emergency designation would in turn violate section 306 of the
Budget Act. Consequently, in order for any amendments to be
offered to this bill, this prohibition needs to be waived.

SUMMARY OF AMENDMENTS MADE IN ORDER TO H.R. 1664 EMERGENCY KOSOVO
SUPPLEMENTAL FOR FY 1999
Latham--40 minutes: The amendment is identical to the
funding provided in the Hurricane Mitch supplemental for the
urgent needs in Agricultural Credit Insurance Fund Program.
Specifically, the amendment provides $105.6 million in
appropriations to support over $1 billion in farm loans and $4
million in administrative expenses. The amendment is paid for
with offsets passed by the House in the Hurricane Mitch
supplemental. The offsets do not include any reduction in
Callable Capital appropriations.
Coburn/Toomey/Sanford--20 minutes: Offsets the bill by
requiring OMB to perform an across-the-board cut of all FY 2000
non-defense discretionary spending equal to the amount of the
bill minus the amount of NATO reimbursements. If no
reimbursements are secured the amendment would result in an
approximate 5 percent across-the-board cut and exempts programs
exempted under current law, such as WIC nutrition programs, and
caps the reduction at 2 percent for Community Health Centers,
Migrant Health Centers, Indian Health Facilities, etc.
Obey--40 minutes: Kosovo Supplemental--Provides the
President's request of $6.05 billion for Kosovo, adds $1.9
billion for military pay and authorizing the pay increase,
provides additional $1.2 billion for FY 1999 Defense operation
and maintenance, provides $400 million for Rapid Reaction
procurement, provides $462 million for Munitions, provides $20
million or Kosovo related Construction projects, provides $175
million for emergency food assistance. Hurricane Mitch/
Agriculture Supplemental--$526 million for agriculture programs
(an additional $374 million above H.R. 1141), $962 million for
Hurricane Mitch disaster relief programs (identical to H.R.
1141), $100 million for Jordan (identical to H.R. 1141), $74
million for miscellaneous domestic programs (similar to
original H.R. 1141), rescissions totaling $174 million to pay
for non-emergencies, technical corrections to FY 1999 Omnibus
Appropriations bill (identical to H.R. 1141).
