                      SMITHSONIAN BOARD OF REGENTS

  Mr. DANIEL E. LUNGREN of California. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous 
consent that the Committee on House Administration be discharged from 
further consideration of the joint resolution (S.J. Res. 7) providing 
for the reappointment of Shirley Ann Jackson as a citizen regent of the 
Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution, and ask for its 
immediate consideration in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the joint resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from California?
  There was no objection.
  The text of the joint resolution is as follows:

                              S.J. Res. 7

       Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
     United States of America in Congress assembled, That, in 
     accordance with section 5581 of the Revised Statutes (20 
     U.S.C. 43), the vacancy on the Board of Regents of the 
     Smithsonian Institution, in the class other than Members of 
     Congress, occurring by reason of the expiration of the term 
     of Shirley Ann Jackson of New York, is filled by 
     reappointment of the incumbent for a term of 6 years
