The rules committee in the House can limit the amount of time to debate a bill.

The Committee on Rules, more commonly refered to as the Rules Committee, sets the time limit for debating a bill. Nevertheless, typically, debate is extended as long as necessary, although a time limit may be set under unanimous decision in time-sensitive cases.

So, the statement provided is true.
