                 MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 3

  Mr. FRIST. I understand S. 3, introduced earlier today by Senator 
Santorum, is at the desk and I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 3) to prohibit the procedure commonly known as 
     partial-birth abortion.

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