          MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2152 and H.R. 2740

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

       A bill (S. 2152) to amend title XXI of the Social Security 
     Act to reauthorize the State Children's Health Insurance 
     Program through fiscal year 2012, and for other purposes.
       A bill (H.R. 2740) to require accountability for 
     contractors and contract personnel under Federal contracts, 
     and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that notwithstanding 
the pro forma session of the Senate on Friday, October 5, the bills be 
considered to have received a second reading and placed on the 
calendar.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
