                                PROGRAM

  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, there 
will be a vote, then, on the Nunn-Lugar-Domenici amendment, to be 
followed, if necessary, by a vote on a motion to invoke cloture, 
beginning at 9:40 a.m. tomorrow morning. The cloture vote may be 
vitiated if a reasonable list of amendments can be reached. However, if 
the cloture vote occurs, and it is invoked, it is hoped that the Senate 
will complete action on the defense bill in a timely manner. If cloture 
is not invoked, Senators who have amendments are encouraged to offer 
those amendments during Thursday's session to enable the Senate to 
complete action on the bill this week.
  As I said earlier, if we do not get it done tomorrow night, we will 
go into Friday, and beyond that, if necessary. Rollcall votes will 
occur throughout tomorrow's session.
  Mr. FORD. Will the Senator yield?
  Mr. LOTT. I yield the floor.
  Mr. FORD. Regarding the time allotted to Senator Dorgan from 8:45 to 
9:00, would you kindly change that to be Senator Bradley?
  Mr. LOTT. I am glad to amend the unanimous consent request agreement 
to that effect, if Senator Dorgan agrees with that.
  Mr. FORD. Yes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I yield the floor.
