REQUEST TO CONSIDER H.R. 962, BORN-ALIVE ABORTION SURVIVORS PROTECTION
ACT
Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. 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.
Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, if this unanimous consent request
cannot be entertained, I urge the Speaker and majority leader to
immediately schedule the Born-Alive bill so we can stand up and protect
the sanctity of human life.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman has not been recognized for
debate.
