BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry.

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, what is the rule for having a vote not be done by voice vote but have to go to the floor for a recorded vote? Is it not a majority of the group necessary to have a hearing? The majority of a quorum, it is 20 percent of the quorum, I believe.

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, my understanding is the rules require 20 percent of a quorum to be present to request and have a vote be done by the yeas and nays. Is that not accurate?

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, on demand?
