            MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 181 AND S. 182

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I am told there are two bills at the desk. 
I, therefore, 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. 181) to amend title VII of the Civil Rights Act 
     of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, 
     and to modify the operation of the Americans with 
     Disabilities Act of 1990 and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 
     to clarify that a discriminatory compensation decision or 
     other practice that is unlawful under such Acts occurs each 
     time compensation is paid pursuant to the discriminatory 
     compensation decision or other practice, and for other 
     purposes.
       A bill (S. 182) to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 
     1938 to provide more effective remedies to victims of 
     discrimination in the payment of wages on the basis of sex, 
     and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. I now ask for their second reading en bloc but object to my 
own request en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bills will be read a 
second time on the next legislative day.
