  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the immediate consideration of H.J. Res. 78, which was 
received from the House; that the joint resolution be read a third time 
and the Senate vote on passage of the resolution with no intervening 
action or debate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the joint resolution by 
title.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

       A joint resolution (H.J. Res. 78) making further continuing 
     appropriations for fiscal year 2016, and for other purposes.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the joint 
resolution.
  The joint resolution was ordered to a third reading and was read the 
third time.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there further debate on the joint 
resolution?
  If not, the joint resolution having been read the third time, the 
question is, Shall the joint resolution pass?
