      MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2615, S. 2616, and S. 2619

  Mr. REID. Madam President, it is my understanding that there are 
three bills at the desk. I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bills by title.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2615) to extend the Protect America Act of 2007 
     for 15 days.
       A bill (S. 2616) to authorize certain programs and 
     activities in the Forest Service, the Department of the 
     Interior, and the Department of Energy, and for other 
     purposes.
       A bill (S. 2619) to protect innocent Americans from violent 
     crime in national parks.

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I now ask for a second reading, en bloc, 
but object to my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
