                           EXECUTIVE CALENDAR

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to executive session to consider en bloc the following 
nominations: Calendar Nos. 513, 516, 517, 559 only, with no other 
executive business in order.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The clerk will report the nominations en bloc.
  The legislative clerk read the nominations of Julie Helene Becker, of 
the District of Columbia, to be an Associate Judge of the Superior 
Court of the District of Columbia for the term of fifteen years; Steven 
Nathan Berk, of the District of Columbia, to be an Associate Judge of 
the Superior Court of the District of Columbia for the term of fifteen 
years; Elizabeth Carroll Wingo, of the District of Columbia, to be an 
Associate Judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia for 
the term of fifteen years; and R. David Harden, of Maryland, to be an 
Assistant Administrator of the United States Agency for International 
Development.
  Thereupon, the Senate proceeded to consider the nominations en bloc.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I know of no further debate on the 
nominations.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. If there is no further debate, the question 
is, Will the Senate advise and consent to the Becker, Berk, Wingo, and 
Harden nominations en bloc?
  The nominations were confirmed en bloc.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the 
motions to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table, the 
President be immediately notified of the Senate's action, and the 
Senate then resume legislative session.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
