PROVIDING FOR THE REAPPOINTMENT OF JOHN W. McCARTER AS A CITIZEN REGENT 
         OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION

  Mrs. MILLER of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that 
the Committee on House Administration be discharged from further 
consideration of the joint resolution (S.J. Res. 32) providing for the 
reappointment of John W. McCarter as a citizen regent of the Board of 
Regents of the Smithsonian Institution, and ask for its immediate 
consideration in the House.
  The Clerk read the title of the joint resolution.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from Michigan?
  There was no objection.
  The text of the joint resolution is as follows:

                              S.J. Res. 32

       Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
     United States of America in Congress assembled, That, in 
     accordance with section 5581 of the Revised Statutes (20 
     U.S.C. 43), the vacancy on the Board of Regents of the 
     Smithsonian Institution, in the class other than Members of 
     Congress, occurring by reason of the expiration of the term 
     of John W. McCarter of Illinois on March 14, 2014, is filled 
     by the reappointment of the incumbent. The reappointment is 
     for a term of 6 years, beginning on March 15, 2014, or the
