   TWENTY-FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF SENATOR JOHN McCAIN'S RELEASE AS A POW

  Mr. DOLE. Madam President, I want to call to the attention of my 
colleagues that today is the 21st anniversary of the release of Senator 
John McCain from prison in Vietnam. John McCain is one of our real 
American heroes, and I know we are all proud of him and what he has 
done. I certainly salute John McCain, as I do at every opportunity. Our 
prayers were with him then, and they are with him now. I call that to 
the attention of my colleagues.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Who seeks recognition?
  Mr. FORD. Madam President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. METZENBAUM. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the 
order for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
