                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. ROBERTS. Mr. President, today the Senate will be in a period of 
morning business until 11:30 a.m. Following the morning business 
period, at 11:30 a.m., the Senate will resume consideration of S. 1022, 
the Commerce, Justice, State appropriations bill. Under the order, 
Senator Wellstone will be recognized for 1 hour, equally divided, to 
debate his two amendments to the bill.
  In addition, from 12:30 to 2:15 p.m., the Senate will recess for the 
weekly policy luncheons to meet. And by consent, at 2:15 p.m., the 
Senate will then proceed to a series of votes on the remaining 
amendments in order to S. 1022, the State, Justice, Commerce 
appropriations bill, including final passage.
  Also, by previous consent, following the votes at 2:15 p.m., the 
Senate will resume the Transportation appropriations bill. As 
previously announced, all amendments to the Transportation 
appropriations bill must be offered and debated during today's session. 
Therefore, additional votes can be anticipated throughout today's 
session of the Senate.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
  It appears to me that perhaps we do not have a quorum. As a matter of 
fact, I suggest to you, Mr. President, 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. ROBERTS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
