Changes in the Rules Prevent Filibuster in Congress
Washington January 19. Only a few rules changes are planned for the Fiftieth Congress. The Holman rule from the Forty-eighth Congress will be readopted to permit germane legislation on appropriation bills and retrenchment in expenditures. A one hour limit on Monday bills introductions aims to curb filibustering on suspension days. A possible rule may allow quick votes by authorizing a time limit on debate with a special order approved by the House.
