    VACATING VOTE ON H.R. 3662, IRAN TERROR FINANCE TRANSPARENCY ACT

  Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the 
proceedings by which the bill (H.R. 3662) to enhance congressional 
oversight over the administration of sanctions against certain 
terrorism financiers, and for other purposes, was passed and the motion 
to reconsider was laid on the table be vacated and that further 
proceedings on the question of passage of H.R. 3662 may be postponed 
through the legislative day of January 26, 2016, as though under clause 
8 of rule XX.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from California?
  Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object--and I do not 
intend to object--I want to thank the majority leader. I personally, as 
a former majority leader, appreciate the policy enunciated by the 
Speaker in turn to accommodate Members' schedules so that we vote on 
time. But this was an extraordinarily important vote. Large numbers of 
Members of both sides missed it, and I very much appreciate the 
majority leader's action and the Speaker's agreement to it to 
accommodate our Members so that, on this important bill, they will be 
able to vote on the 26th.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The reservation of objection is withdrawn.
  Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from California?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Proceedings whereby the motion to reconsider 
was laid on the table and by which the House passed H.R. 3662 are 
vacated, and further proceedings on the questions of passage of H.R. 
3662 are postponed pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX and the order of the 
House of today.
