                       UNANIMOUS CONSENT REQUEST

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The majority leader.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, we are about to vote on the Allen 
amendment----
  Mr. ALLEN. The Harkin-Allen amendment.
  Mr. DASCHLE. I am sorry, the Harkin-Allen amendment. Once the Harkin-
Allen amendment is disposed of, the pending business is the Ensign and 
Brownback amendments. I know Senator Brownback could not be here today. 
So I ask unanimous consent that the Brownback amendment be set aside so 
that we can entertain other amendments.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. ENSIGN. Mr. President, reserving the right to object.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nevada.
  Mr. ENSIGN. Could you repeat the unanimous consent request?
  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Ensign 
and Brownback amendments be set aside so we can entertain other 
amendments today and on Monday.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. ENSIGN. I would have to object at this time until we can have a 
discussion about that.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
