                        SWEARING IN OF SENATORS

  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I would like to state my concurrence with 
the basic proposition stated today that the administration of the oath 
to Senator-elect Feinstein will not prejudice in any way the Senate's 
constitutional power to judge the California election. Neither will the 
pendency of Mr. Huffington's petition diminish in any way the effect of 
the oath that will now be administered to Senator Feinstein. I join in 
the observation by Senator Dole and shared by previous Senate leaders 
that all Senators sworn in today are Senators in every sense of the 
word.
