  Mr. BREAUX. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Veterans 
Committee be discharged from consideration of H.R. 4386, relating to 
the compensation of Persian Gulf war veterans, and that the Senate 
proceed to its immediate consideration.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 4386) to amend title 38, United States Code, 
     and so forth, and for other purposes.

  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. 2651

  Mr. BREAUX. Mr. President, on behalf of Senator Rockefeller, I send a 
substitute amendment to the desk and ask for its immediate 
consideration.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the amendment.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       The Senator from Louisiana [Mr. Breaux], for Mr. 
     Rockefeller, proposes an amendment 2651 in the nature of a 
     substitute.

  (The amendment is printed in today's Record under ``Amendment 
Submitted.'')
  Mr. BREAUX. I also ask unanimous consent that the amendment be agreed 
to; that the bill be read a third time and passed, and the motion to 
reconsider be laid upon the table; that any statements appear at the 
appropriate place in the Record.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection it is so ordered.
