Rob Andrews: “I am encouraged by the fact that I think you have extended an opportunity to work with the chairman and with all of us.”

I think it is the worst-case scenario, in which our relations with the PRC would turn quite frigid.

I do, Mr. Speaker. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized to speak to the point of order.

Reclaiming my time, will the chairman agree that the fair thing to do would be to put the Senate bill on the floor so that each Member could cast an up-or-down vote? I yield to the gentleman.

I respectfully appeal the ruling of the Chair. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is, Shall the decision of the Chair stand as the judgment of the House?
