  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that for the 
duration of the 106th Congress, when the Senate is in recess or 
adjournment, the Secretary of the Senate be authorized to receive 
messages from the President of the United States, and--with the 
exception of House bills, joint resolutions, and concurrent 
resolutions--messages from the House of Representatives; and that they 
be appropriately referred; and that the President of the Senate, the 
President pro tempore, and the Acting President pro tempore be 
authorized to sign duly enrolled bills and joint resolutions.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
