Jared Polis: “If we defeat the previous question, we'll offer an amendment to the rule to provide that, immediately after the House…”

If we defeat the previous question, we'll offer an amendment to the rule to provide that, immediately after the House adopts this rule, it will bring up Mr. Bishop's bill, H.R. 1748, the Taxpayer and Gas Price Relief Act and that would simply do it, in addition to this bill, with broad bipartisan support. I know there is also broad bipartisan concern about gas prices, a very substantial issue that many on my side of the aisle, Mr. Bishop included, would like to do something about so that American consumers have more of their money to take home. So to talk about his proposal, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from New York (Mr. Bishop). {time} 1320
