The rule allows for consideration of these two bills, which will ensure that we are providing better protections for consumers and employees. The FAIR Act stops large corporations from gaming the system in their favor, and allows consumers the opportunity to have their day in court. And the CROWN Act ensures that we do not allow discrimination in any way, shape, or form. These are commonsense bills that help the American people. The material previously referred to by Mrs. Fischbach is as follows: Amendment to House Resolution 979 At the end of the resolution, add the following: Sec. 3. Immediately upon adoption of this resolution, the House shall proceed to the consideration in the House of the bill (H.R. 6858) to strengthen United States energy security, encourage domestic production of crude oil, petroleum products, and natural gas, and for other purposes. All points of order against consideration of the bill are waived. The bill shall be considered as read. All points of order against provisions in the bill are waived. The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the bill and on any amendment thereto to final passage without intervening motion except: (1) one hour of debate equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority member of the Committee on Energy and Commerce; and (2) one motion to recommit. Sec. 4. Clause l(c) of rule XIX shall not apply to the consideration of H.R. 6858.
