                         PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY

  Mr. HINCHEY. Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman will state his parliamentary 
inquiry.
  Mr. HINCHEY. Mr. Speaker, since the majority party in this House has 
not scheduled an opportunity for the House to debate and vote upon 
campaign finance reform, my inquiry is, why are we recessing tonight 
between 3 and 6 p.m. and then coming back for votes which will run 
later on into the evening?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair cannot respond to that. That is 
not a parliamentary inquiry.
