I ask unanimous consent that it be in order to make a point of order en bloc against the list of amendments in violation of rule XXII that is at the desk. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection? Without objection, the points of order are sustained and the amendments fall. The nongermane amendments are as follows: Amendments Nos. 1255, 1286, 1294, 1259, 1261, 1263, 1296, 1152, 1182, 1184, 1147, 1148, 1204, 1179, 1137, 1138, 1247, 1249, 1248, 1118, 1117, 1187, 1211, 1239, 1258, 1186, 1160, 1253, 1068, 1119, 1089, 1153, 1154, 1171, 1173, 1099, 1100, 1139, 1200, 1120, 1155, 1097, 1197; as being dilatory: No. 1174: as being drafted in improperly: No. 1291 Mr. McCAIN.
