  Mr. NICKLES. Mr. President, I understand there are six bills at the 
desk due for their second reading. I ask that they be read 
consecutively.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 73) to prohibit the provision of Federal funds 
     to any State or local educational agency that denies or 
     prevents participation in constitutional prayer in schools.
       A bill (S. 74) to prohibit the provision of Federal funds 
     to any State or local educational agency that distributes or 
     provides morning-after pills to schoolchildren.
       A bill (S. 75) to protect the lives of unborn human beings.
       A bill (S. 76) to make it a violation of a right secured by 
     the Constitution and laws of the United States to perform an 
     abortion with the knowledge that the abortion is being 
     performed solely because of the gender of the fetus.
       A bill (S. 78) to amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to 
     make preferential treatment an unlawful employment practice, 
     and for other purposes.
       A bill (S. 79) to encourage Drug-Free Schools and Safe 
     Schools.

  Mr. NICKLES. Mr. President, I object en bloc to further proceedings 
on these bills at this particular time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the rules, the bills will be placed on 
the calendar.
  The Chair recognizes the Senator from Vermont.
