                  MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 1162

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I understand that S. 1162, introduced 
earlier today by Senator Lincoln and others, is at the desk, and I ask 
for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bill by title.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 1162) to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 
     to accelerate the increase in the refundability of the child 
     tax credit, and for other purposes.

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading and 
object to my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bill will remain at 
the desk.
