            MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 997 AND S. 1001

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, it is my understanding there are two bills 
at the desk, and I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the titles of the bills 
for the first time en bloc.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 997) to amend the Public Health Service Act to 
     provide for human embryonic stem cell research.
       A bill (S. 1001) to restore Second Amendment rights in the 
     District of Columbia.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask for a second reading en bloc, and I 
object to my own request en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  The bills will be read a second time on the next legislative day.
