I will ask the majority leader a question, just to make sure we all understand the schedule. But before I do that, I want to join the majority leader in saying how pleased we are that Steve Scalise not only came back, but is making such a positive contribution to the Congress of the United States. I say to Steve that, when he came back, he gave one of those talks that I will always remember: his gratitude for the care of so many people around the world for a Member of our body. I thank him for his friendship and working together. Hopefully we will continue to do so, hopefully in a very constructive way for the American people. Welcome back, and God bless him, and we wish him a full, full recovery. We don't want him to be too strong on this side, but we want him strong. And with that, we were talking on this side, and it appeared that the majority leader said we weren't going to be here next week. Mr. McCARTHY. Or the week after.
