                AWARDING OF THE CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDAL

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the consideration of H.R. 360.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will report the bill by 
title.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 360) to award posthumously a Congressional 
     Gold Medal to Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole 
     Robertson, and Cynthia Wesley to commemorate the lives they 
     lost 50 years ago in the bombing of the Sixteenth Street 
     Baptist Church, where these 4 little Black girls' ultimate 
     sacrifice served as a catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the bill.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the bill be 
read a third time and passed, the motion to reconsider be laid upon the 
table, and that any statements relating to this matter be printed in 
the Record.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  The bill (H.R. 360) was ordered to a third reading, was read the 
third time, and passed.
