  REQUEST TO WAIVE CERTAIN POINTS OF ORDER AGAINST PROVISIONS OF H.R. 
      4104, DEPARTMENTS OF VETERANS AFFAIRS AND HOUSING AND URBAN 
     DEVELOPMENT, AND INDEPENDENT AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 1999

  Mr. OBEY. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the House waive 
all points of order under clause 2 or 6 of rule XXI against the Y2K 
provisions of H.R. 4104, to wit: the provisions on page 37, line 12, 
through page 38, line 14.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Wisconsin?
  Mr. KOLBE. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, and I would 
object, Mr. Speaker, I would have to object on the grounds that this 
unanimous consent agreement is contrary to the rule which was just 
adopted by the House of Representatives, and for that reason I do 
object.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Objection is heard.

                          ____________________
