    CONDITIONAL RECESS OR ADJOURNMENT OF THE SENATE AND CONDITIONAL 
             ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE FOR THE EASTER RECESS

  Mr. ARMEY. Mr. Speaker, I offered a privileged concurrent resolution 
(H. Con. Res. 257) and ask for its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the concurrent resolution, as follows:

       Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
     concurring), That when the House adjourns on the legislative 
     day of Wednesday, April 1, 1998, it stand adjourned until 
     12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 21, 1998, or until noon on the 
     second day after Members are notified to reassemble pursuant 
     to section 2 of this concurrent resolution, whichever occurs 
     first; and that when the Senate recesses or adjourns at the 
     close of business on Thursday, April 2, 1998, Friday, April 
     3, 1998, Saturday, April 4, 1998, or Sunday, April 5, 1998, 
     pursuant to a motion made by the Majority Leader, or his 
     designee, in accordance with this concurrent resolution, it 
     stand recessed or adjourned until noon on Monday, April 20, 
     1998, or such time on that day as may be specified by the 
     Majority Leader or his designee in the motion to recess or 
     adjourn, or until noon on the second day after members are 
     notified to reassemble pursuant to section 2 of this 
     concurrent resolution, whichever occurs first.
       Sec. 2. The Speaker of the House and the Majority Leader of 
     the Senate, acting jointly after consultation with the 
     Minority Leader of the House and the Minority Leader of the 
     Senate, shall notify the Members of the House and the Senate, 
     respectively, to reassemble whenever, in their opinion, the 
     public interest shall warrant it.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Hefley). The concurrent resolution is 
not debatable.
  The question is on the concurrent resolution.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the ayes appeared to have it.
