                  UNANIMOUS-CONSENT REQUEST--H.R. 1538

  Mr. DODD. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that if the Senate 
receives the message from the House on H.R. 1538, the Wounded Warrior 
bill, with a request for a conference, the Senate agree to the request 
and the Chair be authorized to appoint conferees.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. THUNE. Reserving the right to object on this, this bill passed 
the Senate by unanimous consent. This is something everybody on our 
side supports. It includes a pay raise for members of our military. But 
again, until such time as we receive this message from the House--at 
that time, I guess I will ask the majority to renew that request. Until 
that happens, I object.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
