     MAKING FURTHER CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2010

  Mr. REID. Madam President, we are going to do the continuing 
resolution now until the 23rd. The reason for that is this Defense bill 
will take a little time to enroll. We want to make sure there are no 
gaps in having full funding for Secretary Gates.
  I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the immediate 
consideration of H.J. Res. 64, the continuing resolution received from 
the House and that is at the desk; that the joint resolution be read 
three times and passed, and a motion to reconsider be laid upon the 
table.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The joint resolution (H.J. Res. 64) was ordered to a third reading, 
was read the third time, and passed.
