  Messrs. MAST, ABRAHAM, DUNCAN, RICE of South Carolina, and KEVIN HERN

  So (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and 
the bill, as amended, was passed.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
  The title of the bill was amended so as to read: ``A bill to amend 
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 to amend the definition of 
whistleblower, to extend the anti-retaliation protections provided to 
whistleblowers, and for other purposes.''.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
