           MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2216 AND S. 2217

  Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, I understand that 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. 2216) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 
     to extend the Indian employment credit and the depreciation 
     rules for property used predominantly within an Indian 
     reservation.
       A bill (S. 2217) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 
     to extend the taxable income limit on percentage depletion 
     for oil and natural gas produced from marginal properties.

  Mrs. FEINSTEIN. I now ask for a second reading, and in order to place 
the bills on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I object to 
my requests en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bills will receive 
their second reading on the next legislative day.
