                 UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--H.R. 1552

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that we now 
proceed to the consideration of Calendar No. 204, H.R. 1552, the 
Internet tax moratorium bill; that when the bill is considered, it be 
under the following limitations: that there be 20 minutes for general 
debate on the bill, with that time divided as follows: 5 minutes each 
for the chairman and ranking members of the Senate Commerce and Finance 
Committees, or their designees; that the only first-degree amendment in 
order be the following: an Enzi-Dorgan amendment regarding extension, 
on which there will be 60 minutes for debate prior to a vote in 
relation to the amendment; that if the amendment is not tabled, then 
Senator Gramm of Texas be recognized to offer a relevant second-degree 
amendment to the Enzi-Dorgan amendment; that there be 20 minutes for 
debate prior to a vote in relation to the Gramm of Texas amendment, 
with no amendments in order, with all time equally divided and 
controlled between the proponents and opponents; that upon the 
disposition of all amendments, the use or yielding back of all time, 
the bill be read the third time, the Senate vote on passage of the 
bill, with this action occurring with no further intervening action or 
debate.
  I further ask unanimous consent that the Enzi-Dorgan and Gramm of 
Texas amendments, which are at the desk, be the amendments in order 
under the provisions of this agreement.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  The Senator from Minnesota.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. Reserving the right to object, and I say to the whip 
that I will not object, I want to be clear that on the record tonight 
the Senate, in wrap-up, will proceed to Calendar No. 191, S. 739, the 
Homeless Veterans Improvement Act, which Congressman Lane Evans and I 
have worked on for the last 3 weeks. There has been an anonymous hold. 
My understanding is that tonight this will pass in wrap-up without any 
objection.
  Mr. REID. The Senator has our assurance that will be handled in wrap-
up.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
