  Mr. COATS. Mr. President, for the information of all Members, this 
morning the Senate will be in a period for morning business until the 
hour of 11 a.m. By consent, at 11 a.m., the Senate will begin 
consideration of S. 1033, the Agriculture appropriations bill. The 
majority leader has indicated that it is his hope that the Senate will 
be able to complete action on the Agriculture appropriations bill 
during today's session of the Senate. Therefore, Members can anticipate 
rollcall votes throughout today's session of the Senate. However, as 
was announced last evening, no votes will occur prior to the hour of 4 
p.m. today. Also, as previously announced, the Senate may begin 
consideration of the Commerce, Justice, State appropriations bill upon 
disposition of the Agriculture appropriations bill.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention. Mr. President, I suggest 
the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. DORGAN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER [Mr. Coats]. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
