  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2381, a bill to require 
the Secretary of HHS to provide health care fraud and abuse guidance, 
introduced earlier today by Senator Cohen, is at the desk.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct. The clerk will read 
the bill for the first time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2381) to require the Secretary of Health and 
     Human services to provide health care fraud and abuse 
     guidance, and for other purposes.

  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading.
  Mr. GORTON. I object.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. There is objection. The bill will be read for 
the second time the next legislative day.
  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. FORD. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
