      MEASURES READ THE FIRST TIME EN BLOC--H.R. 312 AND H.R. 2578

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I understand that there are two bills 
at the desk, and I ask for their first reading en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will read the titles of the bills 
for the first time.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A bill (H.R. 312) to reaffirm the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe 
     reservation, and for other purposes.
       A bill (H.R. 2578) to reauthorize the National Flood 
     Insurance Program, and for other purposes.

  Mr. McCONNELL. I now ask for a second reading, and I object to my own 
request all en bloc.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The bills will be read for 
the second time on the next legislative day.
