        NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION ACT FOR FISCAL YEAR 1996

  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, what is the pending business?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the pending business.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 1026) to authorize appropriations for fiscal 
     year 1996 for military activities of the Department of 
     Defense, for military construction, and for defense 
     activities of the Department of Energy, to prescribe 
     personnel strengths for such fiscal year for the Armed 
     Forces, and for other purposes.

  The Senate resumed consideration of the bill.

       Pending:
       Brown Amendment No. 2125, to clarify restrictions on 
     assistance to Pakistan.

  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, I know the managers are not right here right 
now, but we are back on the DOD authorization bill, which we I guess 
terminated last night about midnight. There are 20 some amendments that 
I understand have been cleared throughout the day and there will be 
Senators here in a few moments to start taking up those amendments. In 
the meantime, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. SANTORUM. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
