CONCURRENT RESOLUTIONS—NOV. 13, 1997 111 STAT. 2769 SEC. 3. The Congress declares that clause 5 of rule III of the Rules of the House of Representatives and the order of the Senate of January 7, 1997, authorize for the duration of the One Hundred Fifth Congress the Clerk of the House of Representatives and the Secretary of the Senate, respectively, to receive messages from the President during periods when the House and Senate are not in session and thereby preserve until adjournment sine die of the final regular session of the One Hundred Fifth Congress the constitutional prerogative of the House and Senate to reconsider vetoed measures in light of the objections of the President, since the availability of the Clerk and the Secretary during any earlier adjournment of either House during the current Congress does not prevent the return by the President of any bill presented to him for approval. SEC. 4. The Clerk of the House of Representatives shall inform the President of the United States of the adoption of this concurrent resolution. Agreed to November 13, 1997.
