  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I understand there are two bills at the 
desk, and I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the bills for the first 
time.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 3882) to amend Title 18, United States Code, to 
     support the war on terrorism, and for other purposes.
       A bill (H.R. 503) to amend the Horse Protection Act to 
     prohibit the shipping, transporting, moving, delivering, 
     receiving, possessing, purchasing, selling, or donation of 
     horses and other equines to be slaughtered for human 
     consumption, and for other purposes.

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask for a second reading, and in 
order to place the bills on the calendar under the provisions of rule 
XIV, I object to my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
