Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, I understand 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 legislative clerk read as follows:
A bill (S. 3853) to extend the period for filing claims
under the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act and to provide
for compensation under such Act for claims relating to
Manhattan Project waste, and to improve compensation for
workers involved in uranium mining.
Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, I now ask for its second reading, and
in order to place the bill on the calendar under the provisions of rule

The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
The bill will be read for the second time on the next legislative
