          CIVIL RIGHTS COMMISSION REAUTHORIZATION ACT OF 1994

  Mr. BROOKS. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to take from the 
Speaker's desk the Senate bill (S. 2372) to reauthorize for 3 years the 
Commission on Civil Rights, and for other purposes, with a Senate 
amendment to the House amendments thereto, and concur in the Senate 
amendment to the House amendments.
  The Clerk read the title of the Senate bill.
  The Clerk read the Senate amendment to the House amendments, as 
follows:

       Senate amendment to House Amendments: Page 10, line 12, 
     strike out ``September 30, 1995'' and insert ``September 30, 
     1996''.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Texas?
  Mr. FISH. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, and I shall not 
object, but I make the reservation for the sole purpose of inquiring 
from the chairman of the full committee, am I not correct that the only 
change made by the Senate amendments to the House-passed bill is that 
we had a length of the authorization for 1 year that was changed and 
lengthened by the Senate amendment? That is the only change that was 
involved, is that correct?
  Mr. BROOKS. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. FISH. I yield to the gentleman from Texas.
  Mr. BROOKS. Mr. Speaker, the gentleman is absolutely correct.
  Mr. FISH. I thank the gentleman.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Texas?
  There was no objection.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
