HRES-530 : Still Just a Bill

This document is a House Resolution (H. Res. 530) from the 119th Congress, reported on June 23, 2025. It outlines the rules for debating and considering four separate pieces of legislation:

  • H.R. 3944: A bill making appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. The resolution specifies the process for amendments, debate time, and waives certain points of order.
  • H.R. 275: A bill requiring the Secretary of Homeland Security to publish monthly reports on the number of "special interest aliens" encountered attempting to unlawfully enter the United States. The resolution ensures a vote on the bill and limits debate.
  • H.R. 875: A bill to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make aliens convicted of or who have committed an offense for driving while intoxicated or impaired inadmissible and deportable. The resolution ensures a vote on the bill and limits debate.
  • H. Res. 516: A resolution condemning the violent June 2025 riots in Los Angeles, California. The resolution allows for a one-hour debate and a vote on the resolution.

In essence, H. Res. 530 is a procedural rule that sets the stage for the House of Representatives to consider and vote on these four separate pieces of legislation.
