MAKING INDIVIDUALS EMPLOYED BY ROOSEVELT CAMPOBELLO INTERNATIONAL PARK 
         COMMISSION ELIGIBLE TO OBTAIN FEDERAL HEALTH INSURANCE

  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the 
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform be discharged from further 
consideration of the Senate bill (S. 1099) to amend chapter 89 of title 
5, United States Code, to make individuals employed by the Roosevelt 
Campobello International Park Commission eligible to obtain Federal 
health insurance, and ask for its immediate consideration in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the Senate bill.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Illinois?
  There was no objection.
  The Clerk read the Senate bill, as follows:

                                S. 1099

       Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
     the United States of America in Congress assembled,

     SECTION 1. HEALTH INSURANCE.

       Section 8901(1) of title 5, United States Code, is 
     amended--
       (1) in subparagraph (H), by striking ``and'' at the end;
       (2) in subparagraph (I), by inserting ``and'' after the 
     semicolon; and
       (3) by inserting before the matter following subparagraph 
     (I) the following:
       ``(J) an individual who is employed by the Roosevelt 
     Campobello International Park Commission and is a citizen of 
     the United States,''.

  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, S. 1099 is a bill that makes a 
U.S. citizen employed by the Roosevelt Campobello International Park 
Commission eligible to obtain Federal health insurance.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge the swift passage of this bill.
  The Senate bill was ordered to be read a third time, was read the 
third time, and passed, and a motion to reconsider was laid on the 
table.
