                                PROGRAM

  Mr. DOLE. I just say for the information of all Senators and members 
of their staffs, we will convene at 11 o'clock on Monday. There will be 
3 hours of morning business, and following morning business the Senate 
will then resume consideration of term limits legislation. No rollcall 
votes will occur during Monday's session of the Senate. Senators are 
reminded that under rule XXII all first-degree amendments to the term 
limits legislation must be filed with the clerk by 1 p.m. on Monday. 
Second-degree amendments must be filed no later than 1 hour prior to 
the cloture vote on Tuesday.
  Since the Senate will be in recess for the weekly party caucuses to 
meet, I now ask unanimous consent that Members have until 12:30 p.m. on 
Tuesday, April 23, to file their second-degree amendments to the term 
limits legislation.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DOLE. When the Senate completes debate on Monday, it will resume 
consideration of the term limits legislation Tuesday morning until 12 
noon. No rollcall votes will occur during Tuesday's session prior to 
the hour of 2:15 p.m.
  At 2:15 p.m. on Tuesday, two votes will occur back to back, the first 
being a cloture vote with respect to the term limits legislation, and 
the second vote will be on passage of the health insurance reform bill. 
Senators are encouraged to debate the term limits legislation during 
the session of the Senate on Monday and Tuesday morning. The Senate may 
also be asked to turn to any other legislative items to be cleared for 
action.
  Unless there is some objection, I ask unanimous consent that that 
second vote be limited to 10 minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DOLE. I am not certain what we will have to do after the vote, 
depending on whether cloture is obtained. If it is not obtained, we may 
move on to other business. We could go back to the immigration bill. I 
am not certain of that. But we would like to stay on schedule, and we 
need to complete action on the immigration bill.
  Let me indicate there is widespread support all across America, 
nonpartisan, bipartisan support for immigration reform, and I hope we 
can complete action on that bill sometime next week.
