                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. DOLE. This morning, leader time has been reserved and there will 
be a period for morning business until the hour of 11 a.m. At 11 a.m., 
the Senate will resume consideration of the motion to proceed to S. 
440, the National Highway System bill.
  I have announced there will be no rollcall votes during today's 
session of the Senate. Cloture was filed last night on the motion to 
proceed, and there will be a vote on that cloture motion at 3 o'clock 
on Monday.
  I am hopeful that maybe during today's session there can be some 
agreement reached on S. 440, the National Highway System Designation 
Act of 1995. It is a very important piece of legislation. It affects 
every State. There are one or two controversial areas. One is the 
Davis-Bacon Act, and one is the maximum speed limit compliance program. 
Those two issues, I assume, will be debated for some time. But it is my 
hope to complete action on this bill no later than Tuesday of next 
week, and then at that point to either go to regulatory reform, if that 
is ready--there are negotiations ongoing as we speak, and there are 
still about 10 areas of difference, but if we can reach a bipartisan 
compromise on regulatory reform, we would hope to take it up on 
Wednesday--or the other possible proposal would be welfare reform. And 
again, there is some difficulty on both sides, I might say. Republicans 
are having some difficulties. I understand the Democrats may be, too. 
But that is again a very important piece of legislation we hope to be 
able to resolve if not next week, take it up the following week.
