                    SIGNING OF APPROPRIATIONS BILLS

  Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, I indicated earlier the President was about 
to sign legislative and Treasury. I am now informed he has signed the 
legislative appropriations bill and the Treasury, post office 
appropriations bill. So that brings it to a total of six that have been 
signed, two or three that are still in conference, and one still has 
not passed the Senate because of objections on the other side, the 
Labor-HHS bill.
  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, I assume, I say to the distinguished 
majority leader, if the message has come down those two bills have been 
signed, that still casts doubt as to the Defense appropriations bill, 
and both the majority leader and the distinguished Presiding Officer 
and the Senator from Virginia send this urgent message to the President 
to sign that key piece of legislation.
