  WAIVING CERTAIN LIMITATIONS IN THE USE OF FUNDS TO PAY THE COSTS OF 
      PROJECTS IN RESPONSE TO THE ATTACK ON THE WORLD TRADE CENTER

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent the Senate proceed 
to Calendar No. 275, S. 1637.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will report the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 1637) to waive certain limitations in the case 
     of use of the emergency fund authorized by section 125 of 
     title 23, United States Code, to pay the costs of projects in 
     response to the attack on the World Trade Center in New York 
     City that occurred on September 11, 2001.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the bill.
  Mr. REID. Senator Clinton has an amendment at the desk. I ask for its 
consideration, that the amendment be agreed to, the motion to 
reconsider be laid upon the table, the bill, as amended, be read three 
times and passed, and the motion to reconsider be laid on the table, 
with no intervening action or debate, and any statements pertaining

  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The amendment (No. 2696) was agreed to, as follows:
       On page 2, strike lines 10 through 14 and insert the 
     following:

     ``shall be 100 percent; and
       ``(2) notwithstanding section 125(d)(1) of that''.

  The bill (S. 1637), as amended, was read the third time and passed.
  [The bill will appear in a future edition of the Record.]
