  The PRESIDING OFFICER. By unanimous consent, the mandatory quorum 
call has been waived.
  The question is, Is it the sense of the Senate that debate on S. 
2199, a bill to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to provide 
more effective remedies to victims of discrimination in the payment of 
wages on the basis of sex, and for other purposes, shall be brought to 
a close?
  The yeas and nays are mandatory under the rule.
  The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk called the roll.
  Mr. DURBIN. I announce that the Senator from Indiana (Mr. Donnelly) 
and the Senator from Iowa (Mr. Harkin), are necessarily absent.
  Mr. CORNYN. The following Senators are necessarily absent: the 
Senator from Wyoming (Mr. Barrasso), the Senator from Missouri (Mr. 
Blunt), the Senator from Georgia (Mr. Chambliss), the Senator from Utah 
(Mr. Hatch), the Senator from Kansas (Mr. Moran), and the Senator from 
Kansas (Mr. Roberts).
