   ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING CLASSIFIED SCHEDULE OF AUTHORIZATIONS AND 
 CLASSIFIED ANNEX ACCOMPANYING INTELLIGENCE AUTHORIZATION BILL FOR FY 
                                  2012

  (Mr. ROGERS of Michigan asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. ROGERS of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I wish to announce to all 
Members of the House that the Senate

[[Page H8991]]

has passed H.R. 1892, the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2012, with amendments, including amendments to the classified 
Schedule of Authorizations and classified Annex.
  It is my understanding the House will consider the Senate amendment 
to the bill tomorrow by suspension of the rules. The Committee on Rules 
has posted the legislative text of the Senate amendment online for 
review by all Members.
  Mr. Speaker, in addition, the amended classified Schedule of 
Authorizations and classified Annex accompanying the bill are available 
for review by all Members at the offices of the Permanent Select 
Committee on Intelligence in room HVC-304 of the Capitol Visitors 
Center at any time.
  The committee office will be open during regular business hours for 
the convenience of any Member who wishes to review the classified 
material prior to its consideration in the House. I recommend that 
Members wishing to review the classified Annex contact the committee's 
director of security to arrange a time for that viewing. This will 
assure the availability of committee staff to assist Members who desire 
any assistance during their review of these classified materials.
  It is important that Members keep in mind the requirements of clause 
13 of House rule XXIII, which only permits access to classified 
information by those Members of the House who have signed the oath and 
met the requirements provided for in the rule.
