    MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME--S. 1549, H.R. 2832, AND H.R. 2887

  Mr. DURBIN. Mr. President, I understand there are three bills at the 
desk. I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, the clerk will report the 
bills by title.
  The bill clerk read as follows:

       A bill (S. 1549) to provide tax relief for American workers 
     and businesses, to put workers back on the job while 
     rebuilding and modernizing America, and to provide pathways 
     back to work for Americans looking for jobs.
       A bill (H.R. 2832) to extend the Generalized System of 
     Preferences, and for other purposes.
       A bill (H.R. 2887) to provide an extension of Surface and 
     Air Transportation Programs, and for other purposes.

  Mr. DURBIN. I now ask for a second reading en bloc, and I object to 
my own request en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bills will have their 
second reading on the next legislative day.
