                              ON MEDICARE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from Texas, Mr. Gene Green, is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. Speaker, if the gentleman will yield, I will yield back when my 
time comes to repay him.
  Mr. GENE GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I know there was an objection 
for a Member, and I hope that we do not see that because there was an 
agreement earlier tonight. But I would hope we would be able to proceed 
with the order.
  If the gentleman would like to have someone to stand up over there 
and ask to speak now, I will wait my turn.

                         Parliamentary Inquiry

  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, I have a parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Will the gentleman from Texas, Mr. Gene 
Green, yield for the purpose of a parliamentary inquiry?
  It does count against his time. Will the gentleman yield for the 
purpose of a parliamentary inquiry?
  Mr. GENE GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, we need to go ahead and go 
forward with it because I have 5 minutes on Medicare, and it is a 
concern. I would be more than happy to sit back down, if the Speaker 
would like to recognize a Member from the other side because I think 
the objection has been withdrawn.
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent the gentleman 
yield back his time without having it charged against him in the name 
of decorum so we can go back and forth.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the special order of the 
gentleman from Texas, Mr. Gene Green, is vacated without prejudice.
  There was no objection.
