  Mr. REID. Madam President, there are three bills at the desk due for 
their second reading.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will report the bills en 
bloc.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 162) to cut $500,000,000,000 in spending in 
     fiscal year 2011.

     obligations on the debt held by the public in the event that 
     the debt limit is reached.

     and health care-related provisions in the Health Care and 
     Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.

  Mr. REID. I object to any further proceedings with respect to each of 
these bills.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection is heard. The bills will 
be placed on the calendar.
  Mr. REID. Madam President, I suggest the absence of a quorum and ask 
the time be charged equally against both sides.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered. The clerk will call the roll.
  The bill clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. THUNE. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent the order for the 
quorum call be rescinded.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
