No, certainly not.
I'm proposing that we hit the pause button and take a time out, and that when we return to our next meeting, the floor would be yours first thing. This is precedented because it is in fact yours right now and you can continue on for as long as you like. This committee does have to respect that. As chair, I have to respect that. Again, out of goodwill and the desire to accomplish the tasks before us with regard to determining our next study and our witness lists, I wonder if you would agree to allow the subcommittee to meet now, and then at our next meeting, the floor would be yours first thing.
