  The question is, Is it the sense of the Senate that debate on the 
motion to proceed to S. 1357, a bill to extend authority relating to 
roving surveillance, access to business records, and individual 
terrorists as agents of foreign powers under the Foreign Intelligence 
Surveillance Act of 1978 until July 31, 2015, and for other purposes, 
shall be brought to a close?
  The yeas and nays are mandatory under the rule.
  The clerk will call the roll.

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. On this vote, the yeas are 45, the nays are 
54.
  Three-fifths of the Senators duly chosen and sworn not having voted 
in the affirmative, the motion is rejected.
  The majority leader.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I would say to my colleagues that it is 
clear there aren't 60 votes in the Senate for the House-passed bill, 
and there aren't 60 votes for a 60-day extension.
  So I am going to propound a series of unanimous consent requests to 
see if we can avoid having the program expire roughly 1 week from now.
