HRES-722 : Still Just a Bill

H. Res. 722 is a resolution from the House of Representatives that outlines the procedures for considering two other resolutions. Here's a breakdown:

  • H.R. 5371: This bill makes continuing appropriations and extensions for fiscal year 2026. The resolution waives all points of order against the bill and its provisions, meaning standard procedural objections are not allowed. Debate is limited to one hour, divided equally between the chair and ranking minority member of the Appropriations Committee, with one motion to recommit allowed.
  • H. Res. 719: This resolution honors the life and legacy of Charles "Charlie" James Kirk. Similar to H.R. 5371, the resolution waives points of order and limits debate to one hour, divided between the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
  • Amendment to H. Res. 707: The resolution also amends sections 9, 10, and 11 of House Resolution 707, changing the date from March 31, 2026, to January 31, 2026. This likely pertains to a deadline or expiration date within the context of H. Res. 707.
