This resolution would set the terms for House floor debate on H.R. 8035, the bill extending FISA Section 702 surveillance authorities through October 20, 2027, waiving procedural objections and allotting one hour of debate plus a single motion to recommit.

What this bill would do

What it would do

The resolution would establish a "rule" governing how the House considers H.R. 8035, a separate bill that would extend Title VII surveillance authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act through October 20, 2027. It would make it in order to consider H.R. 8035, waive all points of order against considering the bill and against its provisions, and treat the bill as read on the floor. It would provide one hour of debate divided between the Judiciary Committee and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence leadership, followed by one motion to recommit before final passage.

The resolution itself does not extend any surveillance authority or amend the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act; it only governs the procedure by which the House debates and votes on H.R. 8035.

Key provisions

  1. 1Would make it in order to consider H.R. 8035, extending FISA Title VII authorities through October 20, 2027
  2. 2Would waive all points of order against considering the bill and against its provisions
  3. 3Would deem the bill read on the floor without full reading
  4. 4Would allot one hour of debate divided between Judiciary Committee and Intelligence Committee leadership
  5. 5Would allow one motion to recommit before final passage, with no other intervening motions

Who would be affected

Members of the House of Representatives, particularly the Judiciary Committee and Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence leadership who would control the debate time, and indirectly anyone following whether H.R. 8035's FISA surveillance extension advances toward a floor vote.

Why it matters

Adoption of this resolution determines whether and how quickly H.R. 8035's proposed extension of FISA Section 702 surveillance authorities reaches a House vote, by limiting debate time and blocking procedural objections that could otherwise delay or complicate consideration.
