That clause 6 of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives is amended by adding at the end the following new paragraph: (h) The Committee on Rules may not report a rule or order that would provide less than 10 hours of debate (inclusive of debates on amendments). Any such rule or order shall also provide that if a motion to limit debate is offered, such a motion may only take effect if there is an affirmative vote of two-thirds of those voting, a quorum being present. .
