               AUTHORIZING THE FLYING OF THE POW/MIA FLAG

  Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the immediate consideration of S. Con. Res. 99 submitted 
earlier today by Senator Lott.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A concurrent resolution (S. Con. Res. 99) authorizing the 
     flying of the MIA/POW flag.

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the immediate 
consideration of the concurrent resolution?
  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
concurrent resolution.
  Mr. ENZI. I ask unanimous consent that the concurrent resolution be 
agreed to, the motion to reconsider be laid upon the table, and that 
any statements relating to the resolution appear at this point in the 
Record.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The concurrent resolution was agreed to.
  The concurrent resolution (S. Con. Res. 99) reads as follows:

                            S. Con. Res. 99

       Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives 
     concurring), That, for the purpose of section 1082(b)(1)(B) 
     of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
     1998, the display of the POW/MIA flag at the Capitol shall 
     begin at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 24, 1998. As used in this 
     section, the term ``POW/MIA flag'' has the same meaning as in 
     section 1082 of such Act.
       Sec. 2. The architect of the Capitol may prescribe 
     regulations with respect to the first section of this 
     resolution.
