The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from New York has 6 minutes
remaining. The gentleman from Pennsylvania has 3\1/2\ minutes
remaining.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from New York.
Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. RESCHENTHALER. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my
time.
Mr. Speaker, the three bills made in order by today's rules are
overfunded to the expense of our Nation's military. They strip
longstanding bipartisan provisions and include far left, radical poison
pills, they will not be taken up by the Senate, and they will not
become law.
Given the looming September 30 deadline to fund the government, I
would just hope that my colleagues, my liberal colleagues across the
aisle, would work with Republicans to craft a bipartisan appropriation
measure that can make it to the President's desk.
Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the previous
question and ``no'' on the rule. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance
of my time.
Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time.
I note a great irony. We face enormous challenges in our country and
in our world. But the Members who refuse to wear masks on the floor in
the face of rising infections of a deadly delta variant, particularly
in States with low vaccination rates, respond to all of this by making
a motion to adjourn, to go home, to quit, to stop working. How ironic.
My father, who was a proud pipefitter, Local 13, back in Rochester,
New York, said, You never quit. You never quit until the job is done.
Mr. Speaker, in addition to not quitting, I note another irony. My
colleagues across the aisle are suddenly troubled by deficits. Never
mind that nearly $2 trillion has been added to the national debt by
cutting the taxes of billionaires. Aiding the rich, but not investing
in the lives of middle class and working Americans? We reject that
notion entirely.
Mr. Speaker, many of my Republican colleagues speaking on the rule
today painted a dystopian view of our country. Yes, we have challenges:
a climate crisis, a public health crisis, economic concerns, and great
racial inequities. That is why the investments we are proposing are so
critically important today.
But, Mr. Speaker, I reject the dystopian view. I believe America is
the greatest country in the history of humankind, and my colleagues, we
share an optimistic view. We want to invest in an America where
everyone has a chance to realize their potential, and to achieve their
dreams.
We want to invest our resources and energies to create a safer, more
secure, more prosperous world, and to strive mightily to build a more
perfect union.
Mr. Speaker, I urge a ``yes'' vote on the rule and the previous
question.
The material previously referred to by Mr. Reschenthaler is as
follows:
Amendment to House Resolution H. Res. 567
At the end of the resolution, add the following:
Sec. 13. Immediately upon adoption of this resolution, the
House shall proceed to the consideration in the House of the
bill (H.R. 471) to prohibit the Secretary of Health and Human
Services from lessening the stringency of, and to prohibit
the Secretary of Homeland Security from ceasing or lessening
implementation of, the COVID-19 border health provisions
through the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, and for other
purposes. All points of order against consideration of the
bill are waived. The bill shall be considered as read. All
points of order against provisions in the bill are waived.
The previous question shall be considered as ordered on the
bill and on any amendment thereto to final passage without
intervening motion except: (1) one hour of debate equally
divided and controlled by the chair and ranking minority
member of the Committee on Energy and Commerce; and (2) one
motion to recommit.
Sec. 14. Clause 1(c) of rule XIX shall not apply to the
consideration of H.R. 471.
Mr. MORELLE. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time, and I
move the previous question on the resolution.
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Brown). The question is on ordering the
previous question.
The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that
the ayes appeared to have it.
Mr. RESCHENTHALER. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were ordered.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution
8, the yeas and nays are ordered.
The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 217,
nays 208, not voting 5, as follows:
