Bill Analysis
H.Res. 1115 is a House rules resolution that sets the terms for floor consideration of three specific bills and temporarily alters House procedure on “suspension of the rules” motions. It does not itself change substantive law; instead, it governs how the House debates and votes on other measures.
Covered bills and scope:
- H.R. 556: Would bar the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture from prohibiting the use of lead ammunition or fishing tackle on certain federal lands and waters under their jurisdiction. Affects Interior (e.g., National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management) and USDA (e.g., Forest Service), and indirectly hunters, anglers, and related industries.
- H.R. 1958: Would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to explicitly make noncitizens who have been convicted of defrauding the U.S. government or unlawfully receiving public benefits both inadmissible (barred from entry or status) and deportable (removable after entry). Affects DHS, DOJ immigration courts, and noncitizens involved in such offenses.
- H.R. 4638: Would amend the INA to make noncitizens convicted of harming animals used in law enforcement (e.g., police dogs, horses) inadmissible and deportable. Affects similar immigration enforcement actors and noncitizens convicted of these crimes.
Procedural provisions (typical for such resolutions):
- Specifies how much floor debate time each bill receives and how that time is divided between majority and minority managers.
- Establishes what amendments, if any, are in order (often via a structured rule listing specific amendments or by providing for consideration of a pre-printed amendment in the nature of a substitute).
- Sets the rule for final passage votes (e.g., simple majority, prohibition on motions to recommit with instructions beyond those specified).
- Includes a section “relating to consideration of motions to suspend the rules,” typically authorizing the Speaker, for a defined period, to entertain suspension motions on additional days or for specified measures.
Beneficiaries are primarily House leadership and members seeking predictable debate structure; regulated entities and individuals are affected only indirectly through the underlying bills if enacted. The latest action indicates the House agreed to the rule, clearing the way for consideration of H.R. 556, H.R. 1958, and H.R. 4638 under its terms.
