Transcript of the bs. Unidentified Speaker 3:21:52 PM MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE REPUBLICAN SPEAKER HAS INFORMED THE REPUBLICAN MEMBERS THAT THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE ON THE FLOOR, IS IT UNDER THE RULES OF JEFFERSON'S MANUAL TO KEEP A VOTE OPEN WHILE DECLARING TO MEMBERS THAT THEY'RE FREE TO LEAVE? The Speaker Pro Tempore 3:21:55 PM [...]THE CHAIR WOULD SAY TO THE GENTLEMAN FROM COLORADO IS THAT THE, URN CLAUSE 9 OF RULE 20, THE MINIMUM, UNDERLINED, MINIMUM TIME FOR VOTING IS FIVE MINUTES. THIS VOTE REMAINS OPEN. SO THE MINIMUM TIME IS FIVE MINUTE THERE IS NOT A MAXIMUM TIME. TO THIS CHAIR'S KNOWLEDGE IS THERE A REQUIREMENT THAT DUR Mr. Me Ambiguous. 3:22:22 PM IT DOES AND I APPRECIATE THE SPEAKER'S RESPONSE. IS IT CUSTOMARY FOR A VOTE TO GO OVER ONE HOUR? The Speaker Pro Tempore3:23:09 PM IT IS NOT UNPRECEDENTED, THOUGH THE CHAIR IS NOT A HISTORIAN. SO YOU WOULD HAVE TO -- YOU WOULD HAVE TO TALK TO PEOPLE THAT ARE ENGAGED IN THE HISTORY OF THE -- PROCEEDINGS THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TO BE ABLE TO ASCERTAIN THAT ANSWER. SORRY. Mr. Neguse 3:23:16 PM MY FINAL PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE REQUEST, WOULD IT BE PERMISSIBLE FOR THE SPEAKER TO ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ADJOURN, GIVEN THAT REPUBLICANS DON'T INTEND TO COMPLETE THE VOTE. The Speaker Pro Tempore. 3:23:38 PM THE GENTLEMAN ROSE FOR A PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY THAT ANSWER HAS BEEN GIVEN, THAT WOULD BE THE LIMITATION TO THE GENTLEMAN'S ABILITY ON THE FLOOR. Mr. Neguse. 3:23:49 PM THANK YOU, MR. SPEAKER. And now we wait. Total stall tactic.
