  CORRECTING ENROLLMENT OF H.R. 1654, NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE 
 ADMINISTRATION AUTHORIZATION ACT FOR FISCAL YEARS 2000, 2001, AND 2002

  Mr. SENSENBRENNER. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent for the 
immediate consideration of the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 409) 
directing the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make corrections 
in the enrollment of the bill H.R. 1654.
  The Clerk read the title of the concurrent resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Wisconsin?
  Mr. HALL of Texas. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I 
yield to the gentleman from Wisconsin for his explanation of the 
justification for this resolution and its consideration under the 
expedited procedure.
  Mr. SENSENBRENNER. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Texas for 
yielding.
  This resolution changes the title of section 205 from Space Station 
Management to Space Station Research Utilization and Commercialization 
Management in order to make the title more informative. It also 
replaces specific references to the Russian Service

[[Page H8079]]

Module in section 201 with generic references to any Russian element in 
the International Space Station's critical path, and moves the due date 
for an educational study required in section 317 from October 1, 2000, 
to December 1, 2000.
  Finally, the resolution removes some commas to reduce the number used 
in a series to address stylistic preferences. These are minor changes 
that do not affect the substance of the bill adopted by the House on a 
vote of 399-17 on September 14. They have been discussed with the 
minority and with the other body and all parties have agreed to them.
  Mr. HALL of Texas. I thank the gentleman for his explanation.
  Mr. Speaker, the minority concurs in the necessity to correct the 
enrollment of H.R. 1654. Therefore, we do not object to the immediate 
consideration of the resolution.
  Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Wisconsin?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the concurrent resolution, as follows:
