                         PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY

  Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, I have a parliamentary inquiry.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Womack). The gentleman will state his 
parliamentary inquiry.
  Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, isn't it true that the majority can 
schedule a vote on the no-fly, no buy bill right now?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will not entertain any inquiry 
that does not relate in a practical sense to the pending proceedings.
  Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, I believe that that bill has been filed and 
it is languishing in the committee. My inquiry is, isn't it true that 
we can have a vote on that bill right now?
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman has not stated an inquiry that 
is relevant to the proceedings before the House at this time.
  Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, I respectfully request that the Chair 
answer the question posed.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman is no longer recognized. The 
Chair has advised that the gentleman has not stated an inquiry that is 
relevant to the proceedings before the House at this time.
