Editing Committee (section)

=== Recommit ===
In the [[United States House of Representatives]], a motion to recommit can be made with or without instructions.  If the motion is made without instructions, the bill or resolution is simply sent back to the committee. If the motion is made with instructions and the motion is agreed to, the chairman of the committee in question will immediately report the bill or resolution back to the whole House with the new language.  In this sense, a motion to recommit with instructions is effectively an amendment.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Lynch|first1=Megan S.|title=The Motion to Recommit in the House of Representatives|date=6 January 2016|publisher=Congressional Research Service|location=Washington, DC|url=https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44330.pdf|access-date=31 January 2018|archive-date=28 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160328220838/https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44330.pdf|url-status=live}}</ref>
