            CLIMATE SECURITY ACT OF 2008--MOTION TO PROCEED


                             Cloture Motion

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, if there were someone here from the 
minority, I would ask consent that on Monday, June 2, 2008, following a 
period of morning business, the Senate proceed to the consideration of 
Calendar No. 742, S. 3036, the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act. I 
have been told that if someone were here, they would object. So I 
accept that as an objection.
  In light of that objection, I now move to proceed to Calendar No. 
742, S. 3036, and I send a cloture motion to the desk.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Sanders). The cloture motion having been 
presented under rule XXII, the Chair directs the clerk to read the 
motion.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

                             Cloture Motion

       We, the undersigned Senators, in accordance with the 
     provisions of rule XXII of the Standing Rules of the Senate, 
     hereby move to bring to a close debate on the motion to 
     proceed to Calendar No. 742, S. 3036, the Lieberman-Warner 
     Climate Security Act of 2008:
         Barbara Boxer, Richard Durbin, Benjamin L. Cardin, 
           Charles E. Schumer, Sheldon Whitehouse, Bill Nelson, 
           Amy Klobuchar, Dianne Feinstein, Joseph Lieberman, 
           Daniel K. Akaka, Christopher J. Dodd, Tom Harkin, 
           Daniel K. Inouye, Max Baucus, Ron Wyden, Robert P. 
           Casey, Jr., Harry Reid.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I now ask unanimous consent that the cloture 
vote occur on Monday, June 2, at 5:30 p.m., that the time between 4:30 
and 5:30 be equally divided and controlled between the leaders or their 
designees, and the mandatory quorum be waived.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. I now withdraw the motion.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The motion is withdrawn.
