WAIVING PROVISIONS OF LEGISLATIVE REORGANIZATION ACT OF 1970 REQUIRING 
                   ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS BY JULY 31

  Mr. SENSENBRENNER. Mr. Speaker, I offer a concurrent resolution (H. 
Con. Res. 89) waiving provisions of the Legislative Reorganization Act 
of 1970 requiring adjournment of Congress by July 31, and I ask 
unanimous consent for its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the title of the concurrent resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Wisconsin?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the concurrent resolution, as follows:

                            H. Con. Res. 89

       Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
     concurring), That, notwithstanding the provisions of section 
     132(a) of the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 (2 
     U.S.C. 198(a)), the House of Representatives and the Senate 
     shall not adjourn for a period in excess of three days, or 
     adjourn sine die, until both Houses of Congress have adopted 
     a concurrent resolution providing either for an adjournment 
     (in excess of three days) to a day certain or for adjournment 
     sine die.

  The concurrent resolution was agreed to.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
