Plain-language change summary

The updated version of H.Res. 535 allows for the consideration of H.R. 2467, which requires the Environmental Protection Agency to designate certain substances as hazardous. Additionally, it waives points of order against the bill and its amendments, allowing for a streamlined debate process. In contrast, the earlier version included other bills related to Federal Trade Commission authority and the Afghan Allies Protection Act, which are no longer part of this resolution. This change simplifies the focus of the resolution to a single environmental issue.
