                      RESOLUTIONS SUBMITTED TODAY

  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the en bloc consideration of the following Senate 
resolutions: S. Res. 896, S. Res. 897, S. Res. 898, S. Res. 899, and S. 
Res. 900.
  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolutions en bloc.
  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 Stephanie Baez, trial is expected to 
commence on December 3, 2024, 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, 
including use of the electoral ballots and other documents during the 
proceeding, and constitutional and legal bases for Congress's 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 ask unanimous consent that the resolutions be agreed 
to, the preambles agreed to, and the motions to reconsider be 
considered made and laid upon the table.
