I appreciate the gentleman's information, and I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________

I thank the gentleman. May I ask, do you know when the Rules Committee will meet, Mr. Majority Leader? I yield to the gentleman. Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding. The Rules Committee will meet tomorrow morning…

I thank the gentleman. Mr. Leader, if the Rules Committee meets, say, at 9 a.m., and you said the earliest vote at 10 a.m., obviously, a lot of our Members are focused on what time they have to be here to make sure they make a vote, and…
