                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. MITCHELL. Mr. President, pursuant to the prior agreement, the 
Senate will stand in recess beginning at 11 p.m. this evening and 
continuing until 12:01 tomorrow morning, at which time the live quorum 
will commence as under rule XXII.
  I therefore anticipate that there will be a vote on a motion to 
instruct the Sergeant at Arms to request the presence of absent 
Senators, to be followed by the cloture vote. Although I am uncertain 
at this moment of the precise time, I suspect, therefore, the cloture 
vote will occur sometime between 12:30 a.m., and 1 a.m. tomorrow.
  If cloture is not obtained on the first vote, there will be a second 
cloture vote tomorrow morning, shortly after the first one. And if 
cloture is not obtained then, the two cloture motions which I filed 
will ripen on Monday, and it would be my intention to reconvene the 
Senate on Monday for votes on those two cloture votes. There may, 
indeed there will almost certainly, be additional votes beside the 
cloture votes, both tomorrow morning and Monday in the event cloture is 
not obtained on the first vote --either early tomorrow morning, or on 
Monday.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Nebraska is recognized.
  Mr. EXON. I thank the Chair.
  (The remarks of Mr. Exon pertaining to the introduction of S. 2002 
are located in today's Record under ``Statements on Introduced Bill and 
Joint Resolutions.'')
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Colorado, Mr. Brown.
