PROVIDING FOR TERMINATION OF THE NATIONAL EDUCATION COMMISSION ON TIME 
                   AND LEARNING ON SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to take from the 
Speaker's table the Senate bill (S. 1880) to provie that the National 
Education Commission on Time and Learning shall terminate on September 
30, 1994, and ask for its immediate on September 30, 1994, and ask for 
its immediate consideration in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the Senate bill.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Michigan?
  Mr. GOODLING. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I will not 
object, but I would like the gentleman from Michigan [Mr. Kildee] to 
explain his unanimous consent request.
  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. GOODLING. I yield to the gentleman from Michigan.
  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, S. 1880 changes the termination date for the 
National Education Commission on Time and Learning from 90 days after 
submission of its report until September 30, 1994. This will give the 
commission a little extra time to carry out certain followup activities 
related to the release of their report and also provide for more 
orderly termination of the commission's work. The Department of 
Education already has the funds to pay for these activities, and no 
additional appropriations are required. I know of no opposition to the 
bill.
  Mr. GOODLING. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Michigan [Mr. 
Kildee] for his explanation. There are no extra costs associated with 
this legislation.
  Mr. GOODLING. Mr. speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Michigan?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the Senate bill, as follows:

                                S. 1880

       Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
     the United States of America in Congress assembled, 

     SECTION 1. TERMINATION OF THE NATIONAL EDUCATION COMMISSION 
                   ON TIME AND LEARNING.

       Subsection (g) of section 102 of the National Education 
     Commission on Time and Learning Act (20 U.S.C. 1221-1 note) 
     is amended by striking ``90 days after submitting the final 
     report required by subsection (d)'' and inserting ``on 
     September 30, 1994''.

  The Senate bill was ordered to be read a third time, was read the 
third time, and passed, and a notion to reconsider was laid on the 
table.
