            MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 397 AND S. 403

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I understand there are two bills at the 
desk. I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 397) to prohibit civil liability actions from 
     being brought or continued against manufacturers, 
     distributors, dealers, or importers of firearms or ammunition 
     for damages, injunctive or other relief resulting from the 
     misuse of their products by others.
       A bill (S. 403) to amend title 18, United States Code, to 
     prohibit taking minors across State lines in circumvention of 
     laws requiring the involvement of parents in abortion 
     decisions.
  Mr. FRIST. I now ask for their second reading and, in order to place 
the bills on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I object to 
my own request, all en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  The bills will be read for the second time on the next legislative 
day.
