So a lot of you have called and I said, I can't meet with you right now. I'm in a markup. That's what we're doing. Another common term you'll hear is rule. In the House, a rule decides how a bill gets debated on the floor, how long do we debate it, what amendments are allowed, and how the voting process works. So basically, before the House debates a bill, it has to debate the rules for debating the bill. It's very efficient, very Congress. (00:44–00:55)
