Amendments for Consideration of HR 2670 – FY 2024 NDAA

Yesterday, the House Rules Committee met to prepare the Rule for the consideration of HR 2670, the FY 2024 National Defense Authorization Act. They formulated a structured rule with one hour of general debate and specified which of the 1556 amendments that has been proposed to the Committee could be offered during the consideration of the bill. Amendments are allocated 10 minutes for debate, except when amendments are offered en bloc, then 40 minutes is allocated for all the amendments in that block. There are going to be late nights in the House.

In addition to the change in debate limits, this rule changes the way amendments are listed. Typically they are listed in a table with links to separate amendment documents. For this bill the amendments printed in toto in four separate report documents:

Part I – Amendments 1 thru 48,

Part II – Amendments 49 thru 120,

Part III – Amendments 120 thru 208,

Part IV – Amendments 209 thru 290

Interestingly, these four documents are not searchable with my PDF reader, so I will not be able to provide a list of the cybersecurity related amendments.
