    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 1271, by a record vote of 8 to 4, report the 
same to the House with the recommendation that the resolution 
be adopted.

                SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION

    The resolution provides for the consideration of the Senate 
amendment to H.R. 133, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 
2021. The resolution makes in order a motion offered by the 
chair of the Committee on Appropriations or her designee that 
the House concur in the Senate amendment with an amendment 
consisting of the text of Rules Committee Print 116-68. The 
resolution waives all points of order against consideration of 
the motion. The resolution provides that the Senate amendment 
and the motion shall be considered as read. The resolution 
provides one hour of debate on the motion equally divided and 
controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the 
Committee on Appropriations. The resolution provides that the 
question of adoption of the motion shall be divided for a 
separate vote on the matter proposed to be inserted as 
divisions B, C, E, and F, and the Chair shall first put the 
question on such portion of the divided question. The 
resolution provides that if either portion of the divided 
question fails of adoption, then the motion shall immediately 
be considered to have failed of adoption. Section two provides 
that upon adoption of the resolution, the House shall be 
considered to have concurred in the Senate amendment to H.R. 
1520 with an amendment consisting of the text of Rules 
Committee Print 116-69. The resolution provides that the Clerk 
shall be authorized to make necessary technical and conforming 
changes in the engrossment of the House amendments specified in 
the first two sections, to include corrections in spelling, 
punctuation, section numbering, and cross-references. The 
resolution provides that if a veto message is laid before the 
House on H.R. 6395, then after the message is read, further 
consideration of the veto message and the bill shall be 
postponed until the legislative day of Monday, December 28, 
2020; and on that legislative day, the House shall proceed to 
reconsideration and dispose of such question without 
intervening motion. The resolution provides that the chair of 
the Committee on Appropriations and the chair of the Permanent 
Select Committee on Intelligence may insert in the 
Congressional Record not later than December 28, 2020, such 
material as they may deem explanatory of the Senate amendment 
and the motion specified in section one.

    The waiver of all points of order against consideration of 
the motion includes waivers of the following:

        under consideration shall be admitted under color of
