When debating this resolution, H.J. Res. 35, is it appropriate to discuss superfluous matters to the matter at hand currently on the floor? The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under clause 1 of rule XVII, remarks in debate must be confined to the subject under debate, in this case, the pending legislation.

I would point out that, while you mentioned Elon Musk, who is a U.S. citizen, you did not mention George Soros, who also is a U.S. citizen, but both of those have given money.
I believe the gentleman is referencing a Member by name, and I don't believe that is proper.
May I inquire as to the time remaining. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Foxx). The gentleman from Virginia has 5\1/2\ minutes remaining. The gentleman from New Jersey has 6 minutes remaining.
That is correct. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will not provide an advisory opinion.
