                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 5623

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I have been told that H.R. 5623 has been 
received from the House and is now at the desk. I ask for its first 
reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct. The clerk will report 
the bill by title for the first time.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 5623) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 
     1986 to extend the homebuyer tax credit for the purchase of a 
     principal residence before October 1, 2010, in the case of a 
     written binding contract, entered into with respect to such 
     principal residence before May 1, 2010, and for other 
     purposes.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask for its second reading but object to 
my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection having been heard, the bill will 
receive its second reading on the next legislative day.
