REQUEST TO CONSIDER H.R. 962, BORN-ALIVE ABORTION SURVIVORS PROTECTION
ACT
Ms. FOXX of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent
that the Committee on the Judiciary be discharged from further
consideration of H.R. 962, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection
Act, and ask for its immediate consideration in the House.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. 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.
Ms. FOXX of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, if this unanimous consent
request cannot be entertained, I urge the Speaker and the majority
leader to immediately schedule the Born-Alive bill so we can stand up
and protect the sanctity of human life and I ask all others to join in
in that request.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman is not recognized for
debate.
