On the recordMarch 29, 2012
Reserving the right to object, and I have no intention of objecting, Mr. Speaker, but simply to say that we continue to believe on this side of the aisle that we could resolve this issue, as we have had this debate, over a longer term and give confidence to the markets, give confidence to the States and localities by simply bringing the Senate bill to the floor and passing that bill. With that, Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the ordering of the yeas and nays on the motion that the House suspend the rules and pass H.R. 4239 is vacated, and the Chair will put the question de novo. There was no objection. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Mica) that the House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 4239, as amended. The question was taken; and (two-thirds not being in the affirmative) the motion was rejected. ____________________
