  (Mr. BONIOR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. BONIOR. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the majority leader for the 
purpose of inquiring about the schedule for the remainder of the week

  Mr. ARMEY. I thank the gentleman for yielding.
  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to announce that we have completed our

recorded votes in the House Thursday or Friday.
  The House will meet next for legislative business on Tuesday, 
February 8, at 12:30 p.m. for morning hour and at 2 p.m. for

Members' offices later this week. On Tuesday, we do not expect recorded 
votes until 6 p.m.
  On Wednesday, February 9, and Thursday, February 10, the House will 
meet and consider H.R. 2086, the Networking and Information Technology

pleased to announce that as a special Valentine's Day preview, the 
House will be taking up H.R. 6, the Marriage Penalty Relief Act.
  Mr. Speaker, on Friday, February 11, no votes are expected.
  Mr. BONIOR. Can the gentleman tell us what day the vote and debate on
