                      RESOLUTIONS SUBMITTED TODAY

  Mr. WHITEHOUSE. I now ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed 
to the en bloc consideration of the following Senate resolutions, 
introduced earlier today: S. Res. 313, S. Res. 314, S. Res. 315, and S. 
Res. 317.
  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolutions, en bloc.
  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, in two criminal cases 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 these cases, brought against Mark Sahady and Leo Brent Bozell IV, 
trials are expected to commence on August 21, 2023, and September 6, 
2023, respectively, 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's counting of the electoral 
college votes. Senate Secretary Berry would like to cooperate with 
these requests by providing relevant testimony in these trials from Mr. 
Schwager.
  In keeping with the rules and practices of the Senate, these 
resolutions would authorize the production of relevant testimony from 
Mr. Schwager, with representation by the Senate Legal Counsel.
  Mr. WHITEHOUSE. I ask unanimous consent that the resolutions be 
agreed to, the preambles agreed to, and that the motions to reconsider 
be considered made and laid upon the table, all en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The resolutions were agreed to.
  The preambles were agreed to.
  (The resolutions, with their preambles, are printed in today's Record 
under ``Submitted Resolutions.'')
