To amend the preamble.

SA 2730. Mr. REID (for Mr. Rockefeller (for himself, Mr. Begich, Mr.
Thune, and Mr. Bennet)) proposed an amendment to the resolution S. Res.
289, expressing the sense of the Senate that ambush marketing adversely
affects the United States Olympic and Paralympic teams; as follows:

       In the fifth whereas clause of the preamble, strike
     ``assure that the United States has the best Olympic teams''
     and insert ``ensure that the United States has the best
     Olympic and Paralympic teams''.
       In the sixth whereas clause of the preamble, strike ``in
     ambush marketing as a marketing strategy, affiliating
     themselves with the Olympic and Paralympic Games without
     becoming sponsors of Team USA'' and insert ``in marketing
     strategies that appear to affiliate themselves with the
     Olympic and Paralympic Games without becoming official
     sponsors of Team USA''.
       In the seventh whereas clause of the preamble, strike
     ``ambush marketing harms the United States Olympic and
     Paralympic teams, undermines sponsorship activities, and
     gives ambush marketers an unfair and unethical advantage over
     entities that officially sponsor and provide funding for the
     elite athletes of the United States'' and insert ``any ambush
     marketing in violation of the Lanham Act (15 U.S.C. 1051 et
     seq.) undermines sponsorship activities and creates consumer
     confusion around official Olympic and Paralympic sponsors''.
       In the eighth whereas clause of the preamble, strike
     ``efforts to prevent ambush marketing have enjoyed limited
     success as the strategies used by ambush marketers continue
     to multiply'' and insert ``ambush marketing impedes the goals
     of the Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act (36 U.S.C.
     220501 et seq.) to fund the United States Olympic and
     Paralympic teams through official sponsorships''.
