                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. MITCHELL. Mr. President and Members of the Senate, I will now 
outline the schedule for the Senate for today and for the next several 
days.
  There will be a period for morning business until 9:30 a.m., at which 
time the Senate will resume consideration of the so-called Whitewater 
resolution. That will be disposed of in a vote, or a series of votes to 
occur beginning at 2:15 p.m., today.
  The Senate will then resume consideration of the Treasury, postal 
appropriations bill on which action began yesterday. It is my hope that 
we can complete action on that bill today.
  The Senate will then proceed to consideration of the Department of 
Defense authorization bill, and the foreign operations appropriations 
bill.
  I expect that during this week the Appropriations Committee will 
report two additional appropriations bills, the energy and water, and 
the Department of Agriculture appropriations bills. I hope that we will 
be able to consider those in the next several days.
  I also hope to proceed to consideration of the striker replacement 
bill. And under a previous order, I will move to proceed to the product 
liability bill not later than the close of business on Friday.
  I expect that there will be votes during the day today, not prior to 
2:15 p.m., but certainly thereafter, as well as throughout the week.
  As I indicated in my announcement of the schedule for this period, 
votes are possible on next Monday, June 27. I hope to have an 
announcement with regard to the schedule for that day during this week.
  I conclude by saying that, as I have indicated previously, the 
legislative period between the Fourth of July recess and the Labor Day 
recess will be a very busy one. I expect the Senate to be in session 
with votes 5 days a week with lengthy sessions during each of those 
days as we will have a number of matters on which action will be 
required.
  Mr. President, I thank my colleagues for their cooperation. I note 
the presence of the distinguished Senator from Vermont.
  I yield the floor.
