    PERMISSION FOR AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO BE OFFERED AT ANY TIME DURING 
 CONSIDERATION OF H.R. 1873, SMALL BUSINESS FAIRNESS IN CONTRACTING ACT

  Ms. VELAZQUEZ. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that during 
consideration of H.R. 1873 in the Committee of the Whole, pursuant to 
House Resolution 383, amendment No. 4 by Mr. Sestak be permitted to be 
offered at any time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from New York?
  Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, 
would you mind explaining exactly what that amendment pertains to and 
whether or not this has been discussed with our side?
  Ms. VELAZQUEZ. I thought that the ranking member was agreeable. Mr. 
Sestak is in a markup on the Committee on Armed Services. We cleared 
this with your staff.
  Mr. CHABOT. Mr. Speaker, if the gentlelady will yield, the amendment 
has been discussed with our side, and we are satisfied with it. It was 
a mistake made essentially between Rules and here.
  Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of 
objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from New York?
  There was no objection.
