  ADJUSTING TIME PERIODS FOR SERVICEMEMBERS ABROAD IN CASES REGARDING 
                       PERMANENT RESIDENT STATUS

  Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the 
bill (H.R. 6396) to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to toll, 
during active-duty service abroad in the Armed Forces, the periods of 
time to file a petition and appear for an interview to remove the 
conditional basis for permanent resident status.
  The Clerk read the title of the bill.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 
Michigan (Mr. Conyers) and the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Poe) each will 
control 20 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Michigan.


                             General Leave

  Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members 
have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include 
extraneous material on the bill under consideration.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Michigan?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Speaker, I seek to withdraw the motion.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The motion with respect to H.R. 6396 is 
withdrawn.
