     APPOINTMENT OF CONFEREES ON H.J. RES. 31, FURTHER CONTINUING 
        APPROPRIATIONS FOR DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, 2019

  Mrs. LOWEY. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to take from the 
Speaker's table the joint resolution (H.J. Res. 31) making further 
continuing appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security for 
fiscal year 2019, and for other purposes, with a Senate amendment 
thereto, disagree to the Senate amendment, and agree to the conference 
asked by the Senate.
  The Clerk read the title of the joint resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from New York?
  Mr. HOYER. Reserving the right to objection, I do not intend to 
object, Mr. Speaker, but I hope the experience of the last 35 days has 
taught us that we should never repeat this exercise of shutting down 
government again.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The reservation of objection is withdrawn.
  Is there objection to the request of the gentlewoman from New York?
  The Chair hears none and, without objection, appoints the following 
conferees: Mrs. Lowey, Ms. Roybal-Allard, Mr. Price of North Carolina, 
Ms. Lee of California, Messrs. Cuellar, Aguilar, Ms. Granger, Messrs. 
Fleishmann, Graves of Georgia, and Palazzo.
  There was no objection.
