                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 4965

  Mr. REID. It is my understanding H.R. 4965 is now at the desk. I 
therefore ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bill by title for the 
first time.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 4965) to prohibit the procedure commonly known 
     as partial-birth abortion.

  Mr. REID. I now ask for the second reading and object to my own 
request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
