Providing for consideration of the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 91) relating to a national emergency by the President on April 2, 2025.

H.R. Res. 462 is a House Rules measure that sets the terms for fast-tracking consideration of H.J. Res. 91, a joint resolution concerning a national emergency declared by the President on April 2, 2025. In short, the rule directs the House to move immediately to consider the joint resolution, waives typical procedural protections, treats the bill as read, and sets a limited debate window with a single motion to recommit. It also removes certain standard rule-based constraints on how the measure is debated and requires the House to transmit its action to the Senate within one week. The resolution is a purely procedural tool to accelerate the legislative process for H.J. Res. 91 and does not itself change the substance of the national emergency or the joint resolution.
