baker and ladies and gentlemen the house as all of us know we have been considering for a number of years now the question of how we ensure that we have ethical conduct in this body but more importantly how we give confidence to the american people that we are handling their business in a fashion which they can trust and be proud of it is a difficult effort member or co chair mr smith just an hour ago or so i'm not sure two hours ago brought a new proposal which we had not seen to the rules commit the other side of the aisle with reference to a procedure which would we would not consider the rule that was proposed to the rules change that was proposed tomorrow we do expect to bills scheduled for today and tomorrow today one of them is the endian bill which i think is not of any controversy the ten month extension on that bill  i will be asking for unanimous consent therefore for tomorrow to be a suspension day this will give mr cap want to mr smith the opportunity to discuss a new proposal which has been put on the table just the same afternoon and they will discuss that i know that mr boehner and ms pelosi have also had the speaker have had discussions i presume those discussions will continue so my expectation is tomorrow after the unanimous consent we will conclude this bill we will then it's have no further business we will then have excuse me we will have the andean suspension bill after the conclusion of the end introspection bill webb no further business for today that members would be voting on and then we would tomorrow consider the seven suspension bills and my presumption is it will be a relatively early date tomorrow thursday  recognize for motions for suspension of the rule tomorrow as though clause one of rule fifteen were in place in other words i'm asking for authority to have a suspension gallanter tomorrow now and the end of the day tomorrow would be the anticipated eight bills one tonight and seven tomorrow that we had expected to get done this week on the suspension calendar is that right the gentleman is absolutely correct the suspension bills the andean one will do pleased to hear the rules committee will take time to hear there is another bipartisan alternative mr hill of indiana and myself have offered as well where there's substantial bipartisan support for a third alternative that's not a democratic bill republican bill but when we considering matters of the house it is truly a bipartisan compromise and the gentleman is on his feet from indiana as well and i thank you for the time gemini deal with my friend from indiana  friend the majority leader knows i've been working on this issue for over a year filed a bill last year that would in my view be true reform i have it's a bill that the speaker of the house is not in or the speaker i  big as my friend the majority leader knows i filed a bill last year that in my view created real reform and on ethics i campaigned on this in to extent extensively in the year two thousand and six and it's a bill that i actually talked about in that election year  thousand and six and it fell on on friendly years for people who listen to it it's a proposal that would allow former members of congress to comprise the ethics commission they would have full subpoena powers  the republicans on this commission would be appointed by the democrats and the democrats would be appointed by the republicans this bill is now changing because it is now gaining bipartisan support the shakers the house is not in order and i will tell you members have been expressed great concern that they didn't know about the proposals that were being made my suggestion on both sides the aisles we listen to these proposals as carefully as you're going to want to discuss them in the future and that's not an order i'll try to be brief what happened today is my friend from tennessee mr watt had some ideas that were similar to mine and so we join forces today to try to make this a bipartisan bill so it is a third alternative i hope people will take a look at it i think it's something that both republicans and democrats can support and i believe that it is a real reform i had to examine to make the ideal to gentleman from ohio again and i just want to get a moment of bank of the majority leader for his consideration of the members on both sides of the aisle that had concerns about the way we were proceeding i think all of us have as i said up stairs in the rules committee have the same objective to have a fair process that clearly enforces the rules of the house the american people have the right to expect the highest ethical standards of all of us and how we achieve that objective is where the debate yes and they all of us have the same role about i just want to rise to say thank you to the majority leader for giving us time to try to resolve the differences we might have is there objection to the request by the from the gentleman from maryland without objection so ordered the question is on passage of the bill those in favor say
