I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Washington will be postponed. Amendment No. 6 Offered by Mr. Price of Georgia

I would like to engage the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Yoho) in a colloquy and I yield to the gentleman.

I reserve a point of order on the gentleman's amendment. The Acting CHAIR. A point of order is reserved. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman from Washington and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair recognizes…

I support the gentleman's amendment even though I reserved a point of order. I would just inquire if the gentleman intends to withdraw the amendment.

I reserve a point of order on the gentleman's amendment. The Acting CHAIR. A point of order is reserved. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman from Pennsylvania and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair…

I make a point of order against the amendment because it proposes to change existing law and constitutes legislation in an appropriation bill and, therefore, violates clause 2 of rule XXI. The rule states in pertinent part: ``An amendment…

I think the gentlewoman has very well explained the amendment. We have a system that has been working well for 40 years, and so I don't think we need to make any unnecessary changes, and so I urge Members to support her amendment.

I just want to agree with you that I don't think that taxpayers should bail out Detroit's pension shortfall or any other city's shortfall. So I want you to know that I support your amendment.

I thank the gentleman. Mr. Chairman, I simply want to applaud him for correcting any procedural flaws. He makes an excellent point, and I accept the amendment. Mr. DeSANTIS. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Chairman, I think every American taxpayer needs to be assured that their personal information is going to be held in strict confidence, and that is what this amendment does. I think, particularly at…

I just want you to know that in the bill we have a provision that applies to the IRS. This is a little bit broader, but I think it is a good amendment, so I encourage folks to support it.

The gentleman has made a couple of interesting points that I think bear emphasis. Some of the actions of the IRS have been outrageous, and we have talked about that from time to time. As the gentleman pointed out, this year, $63 million in…

But in spite of the Controlled Substances Act and despite the Bank Secrecy Act, Treasury has given banks guidance on how to facilitate the sale of marijuana. That seems wrong, absolutely wrong. This amendment corrects that wrong, so I urge…

And the Bank Secrecy Act still prohibits banks from laundering the proceeds of illegal activities. Is that right?

Well, I thank the gentleman for yielding, and let me see if I got this straight. Right now, manufacturing, distributing, or dispensing marijuana is still illegal under federal law. Right?

Well, I appreciate the gentleman giving attention to this issue. As you noted, we have included report language on money market funds within the bill. We are concerned about the issue, and we will work with you as this bill moves forward.

I would like to engage in a colloquy with the gentleman from Pennsylvania, and I yield to the gentleman.

I thank the gentleman. As you point out, this is an extensive regulation. It is going to have a profound and far-reaching impact on our economy. I believe these regulations, as you pointed out, are fraught with unintended consequences. As…

I thank the chairman for yielding and for bringing this to the attention of the full House. I will refer to the gentleman as ``chairman'' because I have the pleasure of serving on the Defense Subcommittee, and he acts as the chairman of…

I just got this amendment a little bit ago. I don't quite understand what the gentleman is trying to do. As I read the amendment, it basically says you just can't pay Federal employees. If I am a Federal employee and somebody says you…

I just want to read this again. It says that none of the funds made available by this act may be used to pay any individual at an annual rate of grade 1, step 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. So if you are grade 1, step 6, it says you can't be paid at…

A little earlier, we had a discussion about this, and I pointed out that it is very clear that, right now, it is still illegal under Federal law to manufacture, to distribute, or to dispense marijuana. That is the Federal law. There is…

I reserve a point of order on the gentleman's amendment. The Acting CHAIR. A point of order is reserved. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman from Florida and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes. The Chair recognizes…

I think tax counseling for the elderly is very important, and I am happy to accept your amendment.

I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I appreciate the gentleman from Florida working with the committee on this amendment. We are glad to accept it. Recently, the IRS began enforcement of this new regulation requiring U.S. banks to…
