Latest action (20 Jul 2026): Introduced
What this bill does
This resolution is a procedural measure, known as a "rule," that would set the terms for how the House of Representatives debates and votes on H.R. 9586, a separate bill described only as legislation to "deliver priority legislation." Rather than addressing policy itself, H.Res. 1441 governs the process: it waives procedural objections to considering H.R. 9586, allows a substitute amendment from the Rules Committee's ranking minority member to be automatically adopted if submitted in advance, limits debate to one hour split between majority and minority leadership, and permits one motion to recommit before a final vote. It also waives certain House rules (clause 1(c) of rule XIX and clause 8 of rule XX) for this bill's consideration and requires the Clerk to notify the Senate within three calendar days after passage.
This resolution primarily affects how the House itself operates, structuring floor debate and amendment procedures for members considering H.R. 9586. It does not directly regulate the public, since the bill text provided does not specify the substantive content of H.R. 9586 beyond its title.
The resolution was introduced on July 20, 2026, by Rep. James McGovern and referred to the House Committee on Rules. As a rule governing floor procedure, it would typically need to be approved by the full House before H.R. 9586 could be considered under these terms. No further action beyond introduction is indicated in the provided material.
