                            MORNING BUSINESS

  Mr. LOTT. Madam President, I ask that there now be a period for the 
transaction of routine morning business, with Senators permitted to 
speak for up to 10 minutes each, noting that a number of Senators had 
hoped to speak before the vote on behalf of this nominee's 
confirmation. I know a few would like to get their remarks in the 
Record at this point. Others will want to introduce bills and speak on 
their legislation.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. GLENN. Reserving the right to object, I would like to have 25 
minutes after the statements on Senator Cohen appear, if that is all 
right.
  Mr. LOTT. Madam President, I amend that consent to allow the Senator 
from Ohio to take 25 minutes, with the understanding that we have a few 
Senators who would like to speak first for not more than 10 minutes on 
behalf of this nomination.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
