twelve relating to clarification that credit for p r t size providing incentives for united states production stright section twenty one relating to extension and transportation fringe benefits if icicle commuters the german from pennsylvania will be recognized for five minutes in support of his motion i ask all of those who have conversation to please take them out of the lords that the gentleman from pennsylvania can be heard on his motion to reconsider the gentleman from pennsylvania please thank you mr speaker mr speaker when the democrats took control of this body prices at the pump were about thirty percent  stability of this country and seek lower prices at the pump for american consumers unfortunately the bill it stands before us today fails to accomplish this goal and fails to meet the needs of the american people by taking away the  tax incentives that helped promote royland gas exploration here at home there's still diminishes domestic companies opportunity and incentive to produce gasoline then the done that is correct the house is not in order to lean on both sides of the aisle if you have conversations take them on the floor the gentleman from pennsylvania is there to be listened to and her for the entirety of the five minutes gentleman from pennsylvania and mr speaker this in turn will raise energy costs for its cash strapped consumers while the majority party has come to believe that handing out new tax credits and new bonding authority to governors governors and mayors has a coherent energy policy there are many of us in this chamber that are a little skeptical on that point these dulcet sounding bawn programs lack effect of safeguards to ensure that the money from the newly created liberal slush fund would go toward environmentally sound projects that will promote or improve energy independence in america this rube goldberg device can't be seriously expected to help the average american cope with today's high energy prices what's more it's are these things certainly do nothing to help consumers cope with tomorrow's higher energy prices that the tax increases incorporated into this bill will certainly generate this legislation will not help americans to carpool to work it will not help working moms driving their children to school it will not bring down home heating costs where families struggling to make ends meet during this winter season and it will not lower the recommit will help ease the burden of economic hardship for many of these working families this motion will strike all of the tax increases from the bill at the time when the economy needs more innovat solutions rather than simply stacking tax increase upon tax increases with no relay for working families it will strike the massive haircut that this bill gives to the most effective alternate energy renewable energy policy in this code the wind credit the bill risks undermining the success of the wind credit which has been the most promising source of alternative energy this motion to recommit restores it to its full value this motion also rids the underlying bill of the egregiously wasteful bond program that in our view is nothing more that a waste of taxpayer dollars with no real potential oversight we also eliminate something that i of some of my friends on the other side of the aisle and that is the tax incentive for people who ride their bikes to work and i'm sure i'll hear about this from my paper boy this motion represents a much more rational approach for moving american energy policy forward as we all know the programs tax policies and acted by republican congresses has been a source of fertility in the american economy helping tens of millions of taxpayers and for that matter millions who don't pay taxes but receive repond the bill tax credits from the i r s every year while washington democrats have continued to demonize tax cuts for only helping the rich with facts speak for themselves preserves to critical pro growth policies and prevents tax increases for many working americans first it would prevent the current thousand dollars child tax credit from being slashed in half and twenty eleven through democrat inaction second it would prevent a substantial increase in the marriage tax penalty which is set to occur in twenty eleven according to the treasury department allowing these tax incentives to sunset will force more than six million additional taxpayers to become subject of the individual income tax and one hundred sixteen million families will have an average tax increase of more than eighteen hundred dollars sunsetting the thousand dollar child tax credit and keeping the marriage tax penalty on the books will without a doubt subject millions of families to being hit with serious tax increases what does the majority's inaction on these tax reforms mean could beings higher taxes on low income families with children higher taxes on married couples what does passing the energy bill in front of us mean it means higher energy prices across the board and greater dependence on foreign oil what does passing the motion to re time back for what purpose does the gentleman from new york write in opposition to the motion the gentleman is recognized for five minutes before i speak man have a the gentlemen are both correct the house is not in order and the gentleman from new york was suspended so the house is in order i would ask especially those for this away from the podium to take the conversations off of the house or the house will be in order the gentleman from new york will continue for many reasons the prime one is that this actually kills the bill but bent us from taking a vote but i don't think that they seriously would want us to consider the provisions here that they have in the motion but having said that i'm embarrassed that one of the issues that's in the motion to recommit is that they not allow the city of new york with the support of the president in a state and haven't included in the president's budget the opportunity to utilize tax exempt bon bons that were given for the purpose of assisting us and recovering from that tragic terrorist attack on november the eleventh the studied by the administration conversations they had with republican  democrat mayor and governors about great state they reached a conclusion that the fear an equitable thing because of the impediment in which the original taxes and bond issue was written that it was treasurer i just ask you in case somebody in good conscience would ask why would you do a thing like that in a motion to recommit to give you the opportunity to say i just know that it was in not true that if indeed this motion passed that the bill could be reported back to the respective committee from which it came and that the bill could be reported back as soon as tomorrow all rules of the house of representatives it would be advisory at this point it would be advisory humus get done in from massachusetts want to go back to committee and be reported out what it have to go to the rules committee and what other rules that require may overs before the chair stated on november fifteenth two thousand and seven in order of recommit on that not necessarily waive any rules but the chair cannot render an advisory opinion and what points of warner might lie more status parliamentary inquiry when you say that this does not waive any rules would that include a vote with the house that requires us to go to the rules committee with all the appropriate times because that is that one of the rules that would not be waived that's an improper parliamentary inquir several twenty the chair will reduce to five minutes the minimum time
