     AUTHORIZING TESTIMONY AND REPRESENTATION IN UNITED STATES V. 
                             GOSSJANKOWSKI

  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the immediate consideration of S. Res. 64, which was 
submitted earlier today.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the resolution by title.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A resolution (S. Res. 64) to authorize testimony and 
     representation in United States v. GossJankowski.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolution.
  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, in this criminal case pending in Federal 
district court in the District of Columbia and arising out of the 
events of January 6, 2021, the prosecution has requested testimony from 
a Senate witness.
  In this case brought against Vitali GossJankowski trial is expected 
to commence on February 27, 2023, and the prosecution has requested 
testimony from Daniel Schwager, formerly counsel to the Secretary of 
the Senate, concerning his knowledge and observations of the process 
and constitutional and legal bases for Congress' counting of the 
Electoral College votes. Senate Secretary Berry would like to cooperate 
with this request by providing relevant testimony in this trial from 
Mr. Schwager.
  In keeping with the rules and practices of the Senate, this 
resolution would authorize the production of relevant testimony from 
Mr. Schwager, with representation by the Senate legal counsel.
  Mr. SCHUMER. I further ask that the resolution be agreed to, the 
preamble be agreed to, and the motions to reconsider be considered made 
and laid upon the table with no intervening action or debate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The resolution (S. Res. 64) was agreed to.
  The preamble was agreed to.
  (The resolution, with its preamble, is printed in today's Record 
under ``Submitted Resolutions.'')
