                  MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 2991

  Mr. DODD. Mr. President, I understand that S. 2991, introduced 
earlier today by Senator Reid of Nevada, is at the desk, and I ask for 
its first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the bill by title for 
the first time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 2991) to provide energy price relief and hold 
     oil companies and other entities accountable for their 
     actions with regard to high energy prices, and for other 
     purposes.

  Mr. DODD. I now ask for its second reading and object to my own 
request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The objection having been heard, the bill will 
receive its second reading on the next legislative day.

                          ____________________
