Haley Stevens: “Another speaker on our side is coming. I wish to not make a statement in that queue, so to speak. I just want to speak…”

“Another speaker on our side is coming. I wish to not make a statement in that queue, so to speak. I just want to speak as a manager of the bill. I was under the impression we would be able to get through this discussion prior to the submission of this resolution and be able to go ahead with the votes we have. We have at least three votes left tonight, and we have assurance that we are going to pass this bill tomorrow, and there are still quite a few other amendments out there. So I would like to know--can I inquire, may we get a time agreement from the other side of when this bill will pass tomorrow? I would like to know what is going to happen to this bill now? We had the understanding--I agreed we could not finish it on Wednesday, as we initially agreed--that is today--and that we would finish it tomorrow. But we had not anticipated this prolonged discussion about a resolution that hasn't even been introduced yet. Is the distinguished deputy leader willing to enter into some discussion about this?”
