                  UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--S. 1280

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the amendment 
to the title of S. 1280 be engrossed, set out in the heading of 
amendment No. 668, be considered to have been proposed and adopted as 
such.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, the amendment to the title of S. 1280, as 
engrossed by the Senate was set out only in the heading of amendment 
No. 668, the substitute for the bill, and not in the text of amendment 
No. 668. It was not properly drafted as an amendment to the title of 
the bill. Unlike properly drafted title amendments, amendment headings 
are not printed in the Congressional Record, nor are they contained in 
online computer records. Therefore, this title amendment is first 
present in the engrossed Senate bill and is not otherwise reproduced as 
part of the legislative history of the bill. To clarify the Senate's 
intention to amend this title, the Senate agreed to this unanimous 
consent request.
