talk about the schedule for next week. mr. hoyer: i thank my friend for yield, the republican whip from the grand state of louisiana. as the gentleman is aware, as a result of his service in previous congresses, when we get to the last days of the congress it is very difficult to fix the schedule because the reason we have not already passed something is because it s controversial and we re trying to work out agreement. in that context, mr. speaker, i am advising members that they will not be expected to be back here to vote on any piece of legislation prior to tuesday next at 6:30 p.m. the reason for that is because an agreement has not been reached on either covid-19 legislation or the omnibus for the funding of government for the balance of the year between now and september 30. as a result, even if an agreement were reached tomorrow, the time for the staff to put it in bill language and to file it would take us at least until tuesday. so there s no point in having members
the speaker: the house will be in order. the prayer will be offered by our chaplain, father conroy. chaplain conroy: let us pray. gracious god, we give you thanks for giving us another day. throughout history, you have been ever present to all believers. in times of darkness, we readily turn on lights. millions of americans in this season have variously turn to the celebration of hanukkah, the festival of lights, and the advent and christmas season with its trees and lights. even so, in our political world there remains the reality of considerable disagreement and contention. where there is darkness here, send forth a spark of inspiration and grace. to enlighten minds and warm hearts to respond to your love for your people. eternal father of us all, fill your children with the delight that comes from light. may we walk no longer in the darkness of distrust but join together in mutual understanding and peace toward the common well-being of our nation. may all that is done this
