                  MEASURE READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 223

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I am told S. 223, which was introduced 
earlier today by Senator Rockefeller, is at the desk and I ask for its 
first reading.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the title of the bill for 
the first time.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 223) to modernize the air traffic control 
     system, improve the safety, reliability, and availability of 
     transportation by air in the United States, provide for 
     modernization of the air traffic control system, reauthorize 
     the Federal Aviation Administration, and for other purposes.

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I now ask for its second reading but then 
object to my own request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection having been heard, the bill will 
receive its second reading on the next legislative day.
