One thing a house rules committee does?

In the House of Representatives, the Rules Committee lists the bills on a calendar for debate. This committee can decide to plave the bill ahead of others on the calendar, can limit the amount of time devoted for debate on the bill, and can prohibit the adding of farther amendments to the bill. The powerful Rues Committee can help assure quick passage of a bill or can kill it by placing it so far back on the calendar that it will not reach the House floor before Congress adjourns.
