On the recordDecember 28, 2012
I ask unanimous consent that a Feinstein- Chambliss substitute amendment, which is at the desk, be agreed to; the bill, as amended, be read a third time and the Senate proceed to vote on passage. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The amendment (No. 3441) in the nature of a substitute was agreed to. (The text of the amendment is printed in today's Record under ``Text of Amendments.'') The bill was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading and was read the third time. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there any further debate? If not, the bill having been read the third time, the question is, Shall it pass? The bill, (S. 3454), as amended, was passed.
