REVISED CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET, 1977
Mr. MUSKIE. Mr. President, I ask the Chair to lay before the Senate a message from the House of Representatives on Senate Concurrent Resolution 139.
The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore laid before the Senate a message from the House of Representatives insisting upon its amendment in the nature of a substitute to Senate Concurrent Resolution 139, revising the congressional budget for the U.S. Government for the fiscal year 1977, and requesting a conference with the Senate on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses thereon.
Mr. MUSKIE. I move that the Senate disagree to the amendment of the House and agree to the request of the House for a conference on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses thereon, and that the Chair be authorized to appoint the conferees on the part of the Senate.
The motion was agreed to; and the Acting President pro tempore (Mr. HELMS) appointed Mr. MUSKIE, Mr. MAGNUSON, MT. MOSS, Mr. HOLLINGS, Mr. CRANSTON, Mr. BELLMON, Mr. BEALL, and Mr. DOMENICI conferees on the part of the Senate.
