 CORRECTING TECHNICAL ERRORS IN ENROLLMENT OF H.R. 1594, ECONOMICALLY 
     TARGETED INVESTMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

  Mr. GOODLING. Mr. Speaker, I offer a concurrent resolution (H. Con. 
Res. 108) to correct technical errors in the enrollment of the bill, 
H.R. 1594, and I ask unanimous consent for its immediate consideration.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Riggs). Is there objection to the 
request of the gentleman from Pennsylvania?
  Mr. OWENS. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I would ask 
the gentleman from Pennsylvania [Mr. Goodling] to explain his request.
  Mr. GOODLING. Mr. Speaker, during consideration of the bill H.R. 
1594, the Committee of the Whole adopted an amendment offered by Mr. 
Traficant, which we intended to be language contained in the House 
Report 104-238. Unfortunately, the language offered was not identical 
to the House report; hence, this resolution would instruct a correction 
of the House-passed bill.
  Mr. OWENS. Mr. Speaker, further reserving my right to object, I rise 
in support of the unanimous-consent report.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Pennsylvania [Mr. Goodling]?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the concurrent resolution, as follows:

                            H. Con. Res. 108

       Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
     concurring), That, in the enrollment of the bill (H.R. 1594) 
     to place restrictions on the promotion by the Department of 
     Labor and other Federal agencies and instrumentalities of 
     economically targeted investments in connection with employee 
     benefit plans, the Clerk of the House of Representatives 
     shall, in section 5 of the bill, strike ``Nothing'' and all 
     that follows through the end of such section and insert the 
     following: ``Nothing in this Act is intended to affect the 
     ability of the Department of Labor to issue advisory 
     opinions, information letters, technical releases, prohibited 
     transaction exemptions, or other pronouncements interpreting 
     and applying the fiduciary responsibility rules of the 
     Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 in relation 
     to particular factual situations, or exempting specific 
     transactions from the prohibited transaction provisions of 
     such Act (pursuant to sections 406 and 408 of such Act (29 
     U.S.C. 1106, 1108)).''.

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