        PROVIDING FOR AN ADJOURNMENT OR RECESS OF THE TWO HOUSES

  Mr. BISHOP of New York. Mr. Speaker, I send to the desk a privileged 
concurrent resolution and ask for its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the concurrent resolution, as follows:

                            H. Con. Res. 355

       Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
     concurring), That when the House adjourns on the legislative 
     day of Thursday, May 22, 2008, or Friday, May 23, 2008, on a 
     motion offered pursuant to this concurrent resolution by its 
     Majority Leader or his designee, it stand adjourned until 2 
     p.m. on Tuesday, June 3, 2008, or until the time of any 
     reassembly pursuant to section 2 of this concurrent 
     resolution, whichever occurs first; and that when the Senate 
     recesses or adjourns on any day from Thursday, May 22, 2008, 
     through Friday, May 30, 2008, on a motion offered pursuant to 
     this concurrent resolution by its Majority Leader or his 
     designee, it stand recessed or adjourned until noon on 
     Monday, June 2, 2008, or such other time on that day as may 
     be specified in the motion to recess or adjourn, or until the 
     time of any reassembly pursuant to section 2 of this 
     concurrent resolution, whichever occurs first.
       Sec. 2. The Speaker of the House and the Majority Leader of 
     the Senate, or their respective designees, acting jointly 
     after consultation with the Minority Leader of the House and 
     the Minority Leader of the Senate, shall notify the Members 
     of the House and the Senate, respectively, to reassemble at 
     such place and time as they may designate if, in their 
     opinion, the public interest shall warrant it.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the concurrent 
resolution.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the ayes appeared to have it.
  Mr. MACK. Mr. Speaker, I object to the vote on the ground that a 
quorum is not present and make the point of order that a quorum is not 
present.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Evidently a quorum is not present.
  Pursuant to clause 8 and clause 9 of rule XX, this 15-minute vote on 
House Concurrent Resolution 355 will be followed by 5-minute votes on 
motions to suspend the rules on H.R. 1464, H.R. 2649, and H.R. 2744.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 239, 
nays 175, not voting 20, as follows:
