I have a motion to instruct at the desk. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the motion. The legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator from Connecticut [Mr. Blumenthal] moves that the managers on the part of the Senate at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the House amendment to the bill H.R. 22 be instructed to insist upon the inclusion of the rail safety provisions contained in the amendment passed by the Senate on July 30, 2015, including the authorization of grants for the installation of positive train control. The PRESIDING OFFICER. There will be 4 minutes of debate equally divided. The Senator from Connecticut is recognized.
