                 MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S. 570

  Mr. REID. Madam President, it is my understanding that S. 570 is at 
the desk and due for a second reading.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will read the title of 
the bill for the second time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 570) to stimulate the economy and create jobs at 
     no cost to the taxpayers, and without borrowing money from 
     foreign governments for which our children and grandchildren 
     will be responsible, and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I would object to any further proceedings 
with respect to this bill.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection is heard.
  The bill will be placed on the calendar.
  Mr. REID. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. BOND. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
