            FEDERAL PROPERTY AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES ACT

  Mr. BREAUX. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the immediate consideration of H.R. 2461, a bill to provide 
for the transfer of surplus property for donation to providers of 
services to impoverished families and individuals, received from the 
House and is at the desk.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 2461) to amend the Federal Property 
     Administrative Services Act of 1949 to authorize the transfer 
     to States of surplus personal property for donation to 
     nonprofit providers of necessaries to impoverished families 
     and individuals.

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the immediate 
consideration of the bill?
  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the bill.


                           amendment no. 2649

(Purpose: To end the practice of imposing unfunded Federal mandates on 
States and local governments and to ensure that the Federal Government 
pays the costs incurred by those governments in complying with certain 
          requirements under Federal statutes and regulations)

  Mr. BREAUX. Mr. President, on behalf of Senator Nunn, I send to the 
desk an amendment, which is the text of S. 560 as passed by the Senate. 
I ask unanimous consent that the amendment be agreed to and the motion 
to reconsider be laid upon the table.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The amendment (No. 2649) was agreed to.
  (The text of the amendment is printed in today's Record under 
``Amendments Submitted.'')
  Mr. BREAUX. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the bill, as 
amended, be read three times, passed, and the motion to reconsider be 
laid upon the table; and that any statements be inserted in the Record 
at the appropriate place as if read.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  So the bill (H.R. 2461), as amended, was deemed read the third time 
and passed.
  (The text of the bill will be printed in a future edition of the 
Record.)
