  Mr. MURKOWSKI. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the 
Veterans' Affairs Committee be discharged from further consideration of

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 4850) to provide a cost-of-living adjustment 
     in rates of compensation paid to veterans with service-
