HRES 879
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 resolution establishes procedures for the House to consider several measures, including three joint resolutions disapproving Bureau of Land Management decisions regarding petroleum and land management in Alaska, a concurrent resolution, and four bills addressing natural gas exports, petrochemical refineries, and criminal justice policies in Washington, D.C. The resolution waives procedural points of order against these measures and limits debate to one hour per measure, equally divided between majority and minority. For most measures, it allows one motion to recommit before final passage.
