Permission for Member to Be Considered as First Sponsor of H.R. 1420 and H.R. 4970

The House considered a request by Representative James Gallagher for permission to be listed as the first sponsor of H.R. 1420 and H.R. 4970, two bills originally introduced by Representative LaMalfa of California. Gallagher said the change was needed so he could add cosponsors and request reprintings of the bills under clause 7 of rule XII. No substantive debate on the bills’ contents took place; the time was taken up by the procedural request itself.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
