                     EXTENSION OF MORNING BUSINESS

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the hour of 
morning business be extended until 2:15 and that the half hour for the 
proponents and opponents of the bill be maintained to follow that.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The senior assistant bill clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. THOMAS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. THOMAS. Mr. President, I understand we are in morning business.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. That is correct.
