      MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S.J. RES. 58 AND H.J. RES. 77

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I understand there are two bills at the 
desk, and I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the titles of the bills 
for the first time en bloc.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A resolution (S.J. Res. 58) expressing support for freedom 
     of conscience.
       A resolution (H.J. Res. 77) opposing the decision to end 
     certain United States efforts to prevent Turkish military 
     operations against Syrian Kurdish forces in Northeast Syria.

  Mr. McCONNELL. I now ask for a second reading, and I object to my own 
request, all en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection having been heard, the bills will 
receive a second reading on the next legislative day.
