MEASURES PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--S. 2596, S. 2615, S. 2616, and S. 2619

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I have one small item of business. It is my 
understanding there are four bills due for second readings.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator is correct. The clerk 
will report the bills by title for the second time.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2596) to rescind funds appropriated by the 
     Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008, for the City of 
     Berkeley, California, and any entities located in such city, 
     and to provide that such funds shall be transferred to the 
     Operation and Maintenance, Marine Corps account of the 
     Department of Defense for the purposes of recruiting.
       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 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. Mr. President, I object to further proceedings with respect 
to these bills en bloc.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection having been heard, the 
bills will be placed on the calendar.
