Mr. President, reserving the right to object, I ask unanimous consent the agreement be modified so that rather than amending H.R. 8, that bill--namely H.R. 8--would be considered read a third time and passed. This request would let that bill go directly to the President's desk. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the modification?
