    REQUEST THAT COMMITTEES OF REFERRAL BE DISCHARGED FROM FURTHER 
                      CONSIDERATION OF H. RES. 999

  Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that any 
committees of referral be discharged from further consideration of H. 
Res. 999, expressing agreement with the statements of the Speaker of 
the House of Representatives made on July 16, 2018, regarding Russian 
Federation interference in the 2016 United States elections and related 
matters, and I ask for its immediate consideration in the House of 
Representatives.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Norman). Under guidelines consistently 
issued by successive Speakers, as recorded in section 956 of the House 
Rules and Manual, the Chair is constrained not to entertain the request 
unless it has been cleared by the bipartisan floor and committee 
leaderships.
