      "summary": "The House \u201cdischarge rule\u201d (Rule XV, clause 2) provides a means for Members to bring to the floor for consideration a bill or resolution that has been referred to committee but not reported. Discharge is generally the only procedure by which Members can secure consideration of a measure without cooperation from the committee of referral, the majority-party leadership, or the Committee on Rules. For this reason, discharge is designed to be difficult to accomplish and has infrequently been used with success. See http://www.crs.gov/\u00bfproducts/\u00bfguides/\u00bfguidehome.shtml for more information on legislative process.",
