                  MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 6

  Mr. REID. Madam President, it is my understanding that H.R. 6 has 
been received from the House and is at the desk, and I ask for its 
first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct.
  The clerk will state the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 6) to reduce our Nation's dependency on 
     foreign oil by investing in clean, renewable and alternative 
     energy resources, promoting new emerging energy technologies, 
     developing greater efficiency, and creating a Strategic 
     Energy Efficiency and Renewables Reserve to invest in 
     alternative energy, and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I object to the second reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.

                          ____________________
