Mr. President, I will call up my amendment No. 500. I also tell the Senator from Maine, I will very much consider her recommendation in terms of trying to put it on the second half of this. But I wish to call it up now, and then maybe ask that we withdraw it. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the amendment. The legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator from Oklahoma [Mr. Coburn], for himself, Mr. McCain, Mr. Burr, and Mr. Paul, proposes an amendment numbered 500.
