        PROVIDING FOR AN ADJOURNMENT OR RECESS OF THE TWO HOUSES

  Mr. GEORGE MILLER of California. 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. 398

       Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
     concurring), That, in consonance with section 132(a) of the 
     Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946, when the House 
     adjourns on the legislative day of Thursday, July 31, 2008, 
     Friday, August 1, 2008, or Saturday, August 2, 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 Monday, September 8, 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 Friday, August 1, 2008, 
     through Friday, September 5, 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, September 8, 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. PETRI. 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.
  The Sergeant at Arms will notify absent Members.
  Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, this 15-minute vote on House 
Concurrent Resolution 398 will be followed by 5-minute votes on motions 
to suspend the rules on H.R. 5892 and on House Resolution 1370.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 213,
