                   UNANIMOUS-CONSENT REQUEST--S. 2233

  Mr. INHOFE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the immediate consideration of S. 2233, a bill to provide a 
permanent deduction for State and local general sales taxes, and that 
the bill be read a third time and passed. I further ask that the bill 
then be held at the desk until the House companion bill arrives and 
that all after the enacting clause be stricken, the text of the Senate-
passed bill be inserted, and the House bill, as amended, be read a 
third time and passed.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. BAUCUS. Mr. President, reserving the right to object once again, 
I ask the Senator if he would again modify his request along the lines 
I outlined earlier?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Does the Senator from Oklahoma so modify his 
request?
  Mr. INHOFE. Not at the present time.
  Mr. BAUCUS. Mr. President, I object.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  The Senator from Oklahoma.
