                  MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2370

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2370 is at the desk, 
and I ask for its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bill by title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2370) to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 
     1938 to provide for an increase in the Federal minimum wage.

  Mr. FRIST. I now ask for its second reading and, in order to place 
the bill on the calendar under rule XIV, object to further proceedings 
on this matter.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bill will remain at 
the desk for its second reading on the next legislative day.
