              MEASURE PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S.J. RES. 21

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I understand that S.J. Res. 21 is at 
the desk and is due for its second reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator is correct. The clerk will read 
the title of the joint resolution.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A joint resolution (S.J. Res. 21) expressing the sense of 
     Congress that the number of years during which the death tax 
     under subtitle B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is 
     repealed should be extended, pending the permanent repeal of 
     the death tax.

  Mr. McCONNELL. I object to further proceedings on the measure at this 
time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection is heard. The bill will be 
placed on the calendar.
