Amending the CR - A Basic Guide

 

The  U.S. House is scheduled to consider the continuing resolution during the week of February 14, 2011.

This will be the first general appropriations bill likely to be considered by the House under an open process in several years and perhaps the only continuing resolution ever considered that way.
