                MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 1065

  Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I understand that S. 1065, which was 
introduced earlier today by Senator Specter, is at the desk, and I ask 
for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 1065) to amend the Ethics in Government Act with 
     respect to the appointment of independent counsel.

  Mr. GREGG. I now ask for its second reading, and object to my own 
request on behalf of the other side of the aisle.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  The bill will remain at the desk and have its next reading on the 
next legislative day.
