           MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2738 AND S. 2739

  Mr. REID. It is my understanding there are two bills at the desk due 
for their first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bills by title.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2738) to identify and remove criminal aliens 
     incarcerated in correctional facilities in the United States 
     and for other purposes.
       A bill (S. 2739) to authorize certain programs and 
     activities in the Department of the Interior, the Forest 
     Service, and the Department of Energy, to implement further 
     the Act approving the Covenant to Establish a Commonwealth of 
     the Northern Mariana Islands in Political Union with the 
     United States of America, to amend the Compact of Free 
     Association Amendments Act of 2003, and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. I now ask for their second reading en bloc but I object to 
my own request en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
  The bills will receive their second reading on the next legislative 
day.
