  Ms. SMITH. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the consideration of Executive Calendar No. 148, that the 
Senate vote on the nomination without intervening action or debate, and 
that the motion to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the 
table and the President be immediately notified of the Senate's action.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, the clerk will report the 
nomination.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read the nomination of Karen 
Sasahara, of Massachusetts, a Career Member of the Senior Foreign 
Service, Class of Minister-Counselor, to be Ambassador Extraordinary 
and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the State of 
Kuwait.
  Thereupon, the Senate proceeded to consider the nomination.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is, Will the Senate advise and 
consent to the Sasahara nomination?
  The nomination was confirmed.
