                                PROGRAM

  Mr. CRAIG. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
tomorrow from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the Senate will honor the 
service of our President pro tempore, Senator Strom Thurmond, as the 
longest serving Member of the U.S. Senate. By previous consent, from 
12:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. the Senate will be in recess to allow the 
weekly policy luncheons to meet. At 2:15, the Senate will immediately 
resume consideration of S. 4, the Family Friendly Workplace Act. 
Members who intend to offer amendments to S. 4 should be prepared to 
offer those amendments during tomorrow's session. Therefore, Senators 
can expect rollcall votes throughout tomorrow's session of the Senate 
as we make progress on this important legislation.
  A cloture motion was filed this evening on the pending amendment to 
S. 4, and therefore Members can anticipate a cloture vote on Wednesday 
morning. As always, Members will be notified accordingly as any votes 
are ordered with respect to the legislation.
  Also, under the provisions of rule XXII, Senators have until the hour 
of 12:30 tomorrow afternoon in order to file first-degree amendments. 
It is the leader's hope that we can complete action on S. 4 midweek so 
we can continue action on the concurrent budget resolution and 
supplemental appropriations conference report this week. I appreciate 
all Members' cooperation and I thank Members for their attention.
