                MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 2073

  Mr. COVERDELL. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2073, introduced 
today by Senator Nickles, is at the desk, and I ask for its first 
reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2073) to require the District of Columbia to 
     comply with the 5-year time limit for welfare recipients, to 
     prohibit any future waiver of such limit, and for other 
     purposes.

  Mr. COVERDELL. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading, and I 
object to my own request on behalf of Senators on the Democratic side 
of the aisle.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.

                          ____________________
