       VITIATION OF THE ADOPTION OF AMENDMENT NOS. 3231 AND 3418

  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the adoption 
of amendment Nos. 3231 and 3418 of the Defense authorization bill be 
vitiated.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. WARNER. To explain this, these were two gold medals. 
Unintentionally, the proponents of those amendments did not recognize 
that the Banking Committee had an important role to play. Both 
proponents are now working with the chairman and ranking member of the 
Banking Committee. In the case of Senator Cleland, he has over 68 
signatures on a gold medal for the distinguished former NATO Supreme 
Allied Commander, General Clark, including the signature of the 
Senators from Virginia and from Michigan. That request has been 
granted?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. It has.
