  PERMISSION FOR COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS TO HAVE UNTIL MIDNIGHT, 
    FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 2005, TO FILE PRIVILEGED REPORT ON EMERGENCY 
                 SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS BILL, 2005

  Mr. LEWIS of California. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that 
the Committee on Appropriations have until midnight, March 11, 2005, to 
file a privileged report, making emergency supplemental appropriations 
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2005, and for other purposes.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Culberson). Is there objection to the 
request of the gentleman from California?
  Mr. OBEY. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I would just 
ask the gentleman if he could explain what the schedule is for 
consideration of the bill both in the Rules Committee and on the floor, 
and I yield to the gentleman from California for that purpose.
  Mr. LEWIS of California. Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for 
yielding. I would be happy to try to respond. At this moment it is my 
anticipation that we will be in the Rules Committee on Monday next in 
the evening, sometime in the late day, I suppose; and hopefully we will 
be on the floor on Tuesday. If not on Tuesday, Wednesday.
  Mr. OBEY. I thank the gentleman.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from California?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under clause 1 of rule XXI, points of order 
are reserved.
