HRES 489
Passed House Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.

Summary

This House Rules Committee resolution sets the procedures for floor consideration of four bills: H.R. 884 (on D.C. voting eligibility), H.R. 2056 (on D.C. immigration law compliance), H.R. 2096 (on D.C. police discipline and collective bargaining), and S. 331 (on fentanyl scheduling). For each bill, the resolution waives procedural objections, adopts committee amendments, and sets one hour of equally divided debate time plus allows one motion to recommit. The resolution is a procedural mechanism that enables the House to bring these bills to a floor vote under specified conditions. It does not change the substance of any of the bills, only the rules governing their consideration by the full House.
