In 2009, the majority leader, now Mr. Hoyer, led a formal rebuke of South Carolina Representative Joe Wilson defending ``the rules of the House and enforcing the traditional decorum of the Chamber.'' At the time, Mr. Hoyer said: ``This House cannot stay silent. What is at issue here is important to the House and of importance to the country.'' My parliamentary inquiry is---- The SPEAKER pro tempore. Respectfully, the gentleman is engaged in debate. The House may address this during 1-minute speeches.
