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 April 8, 2024, include: H.R. 524, To amend the Coastal Barrier Resources Act to create an exemption for certain shoreline borrow sites, as amended H.R. 929, Puyallup Tribe of Indians Land Into Trust Confirmation Act of 2023 H.R. 1246, To authorize leases of up to 99 years for land held in trust for federally recognized Indian Tribes H.R.1792, South Pacific Tuna Treaty Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 1829, To require the Secretary of Agriculture to convey the Pleasant Valley Ranger District Administrative Site to Gila County, Arizona, as amended H.R. 2560, Sea Turtle Rescue Assistance Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 3250, National Museum of Play Recognition Act H.R. 4389, Migratory Birds of the Americas Conservation Enhancements Act of 2023, as amended H.R. 6011, ROWATA Act, as amended H.R. 6233, Community Reclamation Partnerships Act H.R. 6443, Jamul Indian Village Land Transfer Act H.R. 6492, EXPLORE Act, as amended H.R. 6655, A Stronger Workforce for America Act, as amended S. 2051, Missing Children's Assistance Reauthorization Act of 2023, as amended
