On Tuesday, the 17th. And my second question is, Could the U.S. Senate have voted on that bill before it arrived from the House of Representatives? The PRESIDING OFFICER. It would take consent. The Senate has done it on several occasions. In one case, H.R. 3630, the Middle Class Tax Relief & Job Creation Act; another case, H.R. 2194, Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Investment Act. It would take consent.
