   REQUEST TO CONSIDER H.R. 18, NO TAXPAYER FUNDING FOR ABORTION ACT

  (Mr. HERN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HERN. Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of our most 
vulnerable Americans; the unborn. They do not have a voice. It is up to 
us to be their champion and fight for their right to life.
  I am deeply concerned by the actions of the majority and the current 
occupants of the White House. They are actively destroying decades of 
progress and protections for the unborn, which is why it is essential 
to pass the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.
  Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the Committees on Energy 
and Commerce, Ways and Means, and the Judiciary be discharged from 
further consideration of H.R. 18 and ask for its immediate 
consideration in the House.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. As the Chair previously advised, that 
request cannot be entertained absent appropriate clearance.
