                MEASURE READ FOR THE FIRST TIME--S. 2941

  Mr. DeWINE. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2941 is at the desk 
and I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bill for the first 
time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2941) to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act 
     of 1971 to provide meaningful campaign finance reform through 
     better reporting, decreasing the role of soft money, and 
     increasing individual contribution limits, and for other 
     purposes.

  Mr. DeWINE. I now ask for its second reading, and I object to my own 
request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection is heard.
  The bill will be read the second time on the next legislative day.

                          ____________________
