  Mr. DeWINE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that 
notwithstanding the recess or adjournment of the Senate, the President 
of the Senate, the President of the Senate pro tempore, and the 
majority and minority leaders be authorized to make appointments to 
commissions, committees, boards, conferences, or interparliamentary
