                MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--H.R. 980

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I understand that H.R. 980 is at the desk 
and due for a second reading. Is that right?
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. That is correct.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, it is my understanding the clerk is going to 
report the matter.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will report.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 980) to provide collective bargaining rights

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I object to any further proceedings at this 
time.

  The bill will be placed on the calendar.
