Bill overview
This resolution provides a process for the House of Representatives to consider two separate bills. First, it sets the rules for considering H.R. 2534, which would prohibit certain securities trading based on nonpublic information. Second, it allows for a motion to discharge the Committee on Foreign Affairs from further consideration of H. Con. Res. 77, a concurrent resolution directing the President to remove U.S. forces from Syria without Congressional authorization. Both bills are intended to be debated and potentially amended within the House.
