proceed to the consideration of S. Res. 329, submitted earlier today.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the resolution by title.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A resolution (S. Res. 329) to authorize testimony and 
     representation in United States v. Horn.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolution.
  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, another criminal trial arising out of the 
events of January 6, 2021, is scheduled to begin on September 13, 2023, 
in Federal district court in the District of Columbia. The defendant in 
this case is charged with multiple counts, including unlawfully 
entering and remaining in a restricted area within the U.S. Capitol 
grounds.
  The prosecution is seeking trial testimony from Michael J. Mastrian, 
Director of the Senate Radio and Television Gallery, and Jeffrey S. 
Kent, Director of the Press Photographers' Gallery, which operate under 
the authority of the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the Senate, 
relating to the regulation of access to the Capitol by bona fide 
members of the electronic news media, news photographers, and heads of 
photographic news bureaus.
  Senate Sergeant at Arms Gibson would like to cooperate by providing 
relevant testimony in this proceeding from Messrs. Mastrian and Kent.
  In keeping with the rules and practices of the Senate, this 
resolution would authorize the production of relevant testimony from 
Messrs. Mastrian and Kent, with representation by the Senate legal 
counsel.
  Ms. SMITH. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the resolution 
be agreed to, the preamble be agreed to, and the motions to reconsider 
be considered made and laid upon the table with no intervening action 
or debate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The resolution (S. Res. 329) was agreed to.
  The preamble was agreed to.
  (The resolution, with its preamble, is printed in today's Record 
under ``Submitted Resolutions.'')
