                MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 2096

  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2096, the Health Care 
Reform Act of 1994, introduced earlier today by Senator Domenici, is at 
the desk.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct.
  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2096) to improve private health insurance, to 
     provide equitable tax treatment for health insurance, to 
     reform Federal health-care programs, to provide health care 
     cost reduction measures, and for other purposes.

  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading, and, on 
behalf of the Republican leader, I object.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is noted. The bill will lay over 
until the following day.
