                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 4579

  Mr. ROBERTS. Mr. President, I understand that H.R. 4579 has arrived 
from the House and is at the desk. I now ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 4579) to provide tax relief for individuals, 
     families, and farming and other small businesses, to provide 
     tax incentives for education, to extend certain expiring 
     provisions, to amend the Social Security Act to establish the 
     Protect Social Security Account into which the Secretary of 
     the Treasury shall deposit budget surpluses until a reform 
     measure is enacted to ensure the long-term solvency of the 
     OASDI trust funds, and for other purposes.

  Mr. ROBERTS. I now ask for its second reading and would object to my 
own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection is heard.
  The bill will be read the second time on the next legislative day.
