Bill Analysis
H.Res. 1095 is a special rule adopted by the House to govern floor consideration of H.R. 7744, the FY2026 Department of Homeland Security (DHS) appropriations bill. It does not itself appropriate funds or change substantive law; instead, it sets the procedural framework by which the House debates and amends H.R. 7744.
Key functions and authorities:
- Brings H.R. 7744 to the floor: The resolution “provides for consideration” of the DHS appropriations bill, meaning it authorizes the House to take up the bill and outlines how that consideration occurs.
- Debate structure: It typically allocates a fixed amount of general debate time, divided between the majority and minority, and may specify which committee(s) control that time (usually the Appropriations Committee).
- Amendment process: The rule likely designates the form of the bill to be considered (e.g., an amendment in the nature of a substitute) and may:
- Allow only certain pre-printed or Rules Committee–approved amendments (“structured rule”), or
- Permit more open amendment offerings under specified conditions.
- Points of order: It commonly waives certain points of order under House rules or the Congressional Budget Act that might otherwise block consideration of the bill or specific provisions (for example, technical budget or authorization violations).
- Final passage procedure: The rule usually provides for one motion to recommit (with or without instructions), giving the minority a last opportunity to amend the bill before final passage.
Agencies and stakeholders affected are indirect: DHS components (e.g., CBP, ICE, TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, CISA) and related grantees and contractors are impacted only through the underlying H.R. 7744, not through H.Res. 1095 itself.
Timeline: The resolution is effective upon adoption and applies only to the House’s consideration of H.R. 7744 during the 119th Congress. The noted action—“Motion to reconsider laid on the table agreed to without objection”—finalizes adoption of the rule, making it immediately operative and not subject to further reconsideration.
