I just want to remind my colleague on the Rules Committee that I stated very clearly that I was talking about House Republicans. But I do want to point out that no Republican in the Senate voted for this debt limit extension in addition to that, and I appreciate the majority leader's words. He gave us a history lesson about the debt limit and the votes and about not playing politics, but I just want to, before we move on, remind everyone about a quote from then-Senator and now President Biden. It was from 2004, during President Bush's Presidency and then-Senator Biden said: ``My symbolic vote against raising the debt limit would have been a protest of the policies that brought us to this point, and I demand that we change course.'' So this has not always been as bipartisan as the majority leader made it appear. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Good). Parliamentary Inquiry
