What I suggest is if the gentleman would reserve the balance of his time, let me say what I have to say about this particular issue, and then we can proceed from that point, if that is okay.

Would you like to start the colloquy, because I really don't have the best answer for you right now.

Madam Speaker, by direction of the Committee on Rules, I call up House Resolution 661 and ask for its immediate consideration. The Clerk read the resolution, as follows: H. Res. 661 Resolved, That at any time after the adoption of this…

Madam Speaker, I urge the gentleman to read page 544 in the base bill to answer his question. I am pleased to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Walsh).

Madam Speaker, despite advice to the contrary, our Constitution establishes a government with two sovereigns, the Nation and the individual States. They worried about that in Philadelphia. In fact, James Wilson wondered if this system…

I reserve the balance of my time. Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Doggett).

Of course, they also don't mention a couple of other things. One is that we were able to help create over 100,000 jobs. And secondly, on the president's watch, about 100,000 jobs were lost in the auto industry and auto dealers and auto…

He helped create 100,000 jobs when he was CEO of private equity firm Bain Capital.

They said, oh, gosh, Governor Romney at Bain Capital close downed a steel factory, but their problem, of course, is that the steel factory closed down two years after I left Bain Capital.

The manager's amendment, thankfully, was adopted, because the manager's amendment did have one little piece in there that helps out immigrant women. But there are 325 groups and organizations, everything from national women organizations…

Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. I do appreciate the woman walking us through the protocols for the unfunded mandates. And I would submit to her that the National Network to End Domestic Violence, who does a…

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the ladies who are submitting their statements for the Record. The Members who join me today are just a few of the many people who would like to be here to offer their suggestions for improving the bill and to…

Mr. Speaker, I raise this point of order not necessarily out of concern for unfunded mandates, although there are some unfunded mandates in the underlying bill, H.R. 4970; rather, I am here today because this is the only opportunity to…

Mr. Speaker, I raise a point of order against H. Res. 656 because the resolution violates section 426(a) of the Congressional Budget Act. The resolution contains a waiver of all points of order against consideration of the bill, which…

The declarative statement that you referred to, am I not correct, Mr. Speaker, that that could also include a sentence, a complete sentence? The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will only deduct time for embellishments.

I thank the Speaker and I thank the gentlelady. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentlewoman from Wisconsin has expired. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from North Carolina.

Yes, ma'am, I am opposed to the bill in its current form. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit. The Clerk read as follows: Ms. Moore moves to recommit the bill H.R. 4970 to the Committee on the Judiciary…
