PROCEDURAL MOTIONS TO RECOMMIT
(Ms. DEAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. DEAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to make clear that the motions to recommit that will be offered by our colleagues on the other side of the aisle are procedural. They are not motions that are sending back the legislation with instructions. It is a procedural move. I want to be clear and read literally what the motion to recommit says.
Motion to recommit H.R. 8, offered by Mr. Jordan of Ohio, moves to recommit the bill, H.R. 8, to the Committee on the Judiciary. That is it.
Motion to recommit H.R. 1446, offered by Mr. Hudson of North Carolina, moves to recommit H.R. 1446 to the Committee on the Judiciary.
These are fake attempts to recommit these bills and to stop them from moving forward. They are sensible pieces of legislation that will save lives.
