                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 3120

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I inquire of the Chair if H.R. 3120 has 
arrived from the House of Representatives?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Yes, it has.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 3120) to amend title 18, United States Code, 
     with respect to witness retaliation, witness tampering and 
     jury tampering.

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading, and I 
object on behalf of the Democratic leadership. I understand they have 
some concerns with it.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection is heard.
  Mr. LOTT. Will the bill remain at the desk to be read a second time 
following the next adjournment of the Senate?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct.
