                 MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--H.R. 5017

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I understand H.R. 5017 is at the desk, and 
I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the title of the bill for 
the first time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 5017) to amend the Temporary Emergency 
     Wildfire Suppression Act to facilitate the ability of the 
     Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture to 
     enter into reciprocal agreements with foreign countries for 
     the sharing of personnel to fight wildfires.

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I now ask for its second reading, but I 
object to my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The bill will receive its second reading on 
the next legislative day.
