Mr. Conyers raised a point of order against the content of the measure. Mr. Conyers stated that the provisions contained in section 306 (b) of the bill (reducing the number of employee positions for the GAO, GPO, and the Library of Congress by one position for each vacancy created under the early retirement provisions of the bill), constituted legislation on an appropriations bill and was, therefore, a violation of the rules of the House. The Chair sustained the point of order.
