House Rules Committee consolidates five compensation resolutions into HR 128
Summary
The House Rules Committee approved a rule substitute to bundle five separate compensation resolutions into House Resolution 128 to streamline floor consideration, a motion that passed by voice vote and was placed on the second supplemental calendar.
Chairwoman Dempsey, chair of the House Rules Committee, told members that House Resolution 128 would combine five separate compensation resolutions into a single bill to save time during floor consideration.
“Basically, this pulls together the 5 resolutions that we have on here, the compensation resolutions, and puts them in 1 HR, hopefully, to help with time tonight,” Chairwoman Dempsey said.
Committee members moved and seconded the rule substitute. A voice vote was taken; members responded “aye,” and the motion passed. The committee subsequently set the second supplemental calendar and placed House Resolution 128, rule substitute (LC600127S), on that calendar under the committee’s modified structure.
The action was procedural: consolidating existing compensation measures into a single resolution for consideration. No committee debate or amendment details were recorded in the transcript.
