  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I understand there are two bills at the desk 
due for a second reading, is that correct?
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator is correct.
  The clerk will read the bills for the second time.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 3410) to create a fair and efficient system to 
     resolve claims of victims for economic injury caused by the 
     Deepwater Horizon incident, and to direct the Secretary of 
     the Interior to renegotiate the terms of the lease known as 
     ``Mississippi Canyon 252'' with respect to claims relating to 
     the Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill that exceed 
     existing applicable economic liability limitations.
       A bill (S. 3421) to provide a temporary extension for 
     certain programs, and for other purposes.
