“I thank the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. Scalise), for yielding. Mr. Speaker, on Monday, the House will meet at 12 p.m. for morning hour and 2 p.m. for legislative business, with votes postponed until 10:30 p.m. On Tuesday, the House will meet at 10 a.m. I want to make that clear. That is an acceleration from 12 p.m. We have a lot of business to do next week. We have a lot of appropriations bills, so we want to make sure that we are not meeting late, late into the night. So on Tuesday, the House will meet at 10 a.m. for morning hour and 12 p.m. for legislative business. On Wednesday, the House is expected to meet at 11 a.m. for legislative business. On Thursday, the House will expect to meet at 10 a.m. for legislative business. On Friday, the House will meet, as usual, at 9 a.m. for legislative business. The House will consider several bills under suspension of the rules. The complete list of suspensions will be announced by close of business tomorrow. In addition, the House will consider at least 7 of the 12 appropriations bills for fiscal year 2022. Recognizing the importance of completing our work well in advance of the deadline at the end of September, I would let the Members know that, unfortunately--well, first of all, let me say, we have marked up all 12 bills, and they have been reported out of committee. The Senate has not reported out, nor considered a single appropriation bill.…”
