                   RECOGNITION OF THE MINORITY LEADER

  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Republican leader.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I will shortly be making a statement in 
my leader time related to the Burma sanctions bill, which I introduce 
every year at this time, but I need to first consult with the majority 
leader.
  For the moment, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  The minority leader is recognized.
  Mr. McCONNELL. I thank the Chair.
