Jared Polis said "I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, appropriations are at the discretion of Congress every year.

Patent reform is critical, it's important, and it's the right way to go, but this bill and the manager's amendment and the rule are the wrong approach. If we defeat the previous question, I will offer an amendment to the rule to remove the $712 million plus CutGo waiver for amendments to H.R. 1249. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to insert the text of the amendment in the Record along with extraneous material immediately prior to the vote on the previous question. The SPEAKER pro tempore.
