                GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOOD LABELING BILL

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, as we all know, the President will be 
making an announcement this morning on the Supreme Court. I will have 
more to say about that later this morning.
  As for the legislation currently before the Senate, the Senate will 
resume its consideration of bipartisan legislation aimed at protecting 
middle-class families from unfair higher food prices. It is a 
commonsense solution founded on science-based standards. Let's advance 
it together. If colleagues have other ideas on the issue, I would again 
encourage them to work with the bill managers to process any 
alternative solutions they may have.
