          FURTHER CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS, FISCAL YEAR 2012

  Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I send to the desk a joint 
resolution (H.J. Res. 94) making further continuing appropriations for 
fiscal year 2012, and for other purposes, and ask unanimous consent for 
its immediate consideration.
  The Clerk read the title of the joint resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Kentucky?
  Mr. DICKS. Reserving the right to object, and I will not object, I 
yield to the distinguished chairman to explain this CR.
  Mr. ROGERS of Kentucky. I thank the gentleman for yielding.
  This continuing resolution extends funding for government operations 
by 1 day to give the other body an extra day to consider and pass the 
consolidated appropriations bill.
  Mr. DICKS. I withdraw my reservation.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Kentucky?
  There was no objection.
  The text of the joint resolution is as follows:
