  Ms. COLLINS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the 
Judiciary Committee be discharged from further consideration of H.R. 
2886, and that the Senate proceed to its immediate consideration.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The clerk 
will report the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 2886) to amend the Immigration and Nationality
