Description:
The Majority Leader of the House of Representatives announces bills that will be considered under suspension of the rules in that chamber. Under suspension, floor debate is limited, all floor amendments are prohibited, points of order against the bill are waived, and final passage requires a two-thirds majority vote. At the request of the Majority Leader and the House Committee on the Budget, CBO estimates the effects of those bills on direct spending and revenues. CBO has limited time to review the legislation before consideration. Although it is possible in most cases to determine whether the legislation would affect direct spending or revenues, time may be insufficient to estimate the magnitude of those effects. If CBO has prepared estimates for similar or identical legislation, a more detailed assessment of budgetary effects, including effects on spending subject to appropriation, may be included. CBO’s estimates of the bills that have been posted for possible consideration under suspension of the rules during the week of May 13, 2024, include: H.R. 1797, Setting Consumer Standards for Lithium-Ion Batteries Act, as amended H.R. 2964, WIPPES Act, as amended H.R. 3950, TICKET Act, as amended H.R. 4310, Youth Poisoning Protection Act, as amended H.R. 4510, NTIA Reauthorization Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 4581, Maternal and Child Health Stillbirth Prevention Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 4814, Consumer Safety Technology Act, as amended H.R. 5390, Critical Infrastructure Manufacturing Feasibility Act H.R. 6132, Awning Safety Act H.R. 6543, No Hidden FEES Act of 2023 H.R. 6571, Promoting Resilient Supply Chains Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 6572, Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 6960, Emergency Medical Services for Children Reauthorization Act of 2024, as amended H.R. 7659, Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2024, as amended H.Con.Res. 106, Expressing support for local law enforcement officers and condemning efforts to defund local law enforcement agencies S. 546, Recruit and Retain Act
