                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 1868

  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I understand that there is a bill at the 
desk, and I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bill by title for the 
first time.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 1868), to prevent across-the-board direct 
     spending cuts, and for other purposes.

  Mr. SCHUMER. I now ask for a second reading and, in order to place 
the bill on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I object to 
my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection being heard, the bill will be read 
on the next legislative day.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nebraska.
