                                PROGRAM

  Mr. NICKLES. For the information of all Members, tomorrow the Senate 
will immediately resume consideration of the Harkin amendment to the 
Agriculture appropriations bill. Under the previous order, there will 
be 20 minutes for debate on the amendment equally divided between 
Senator Cochran and Senator Harkin. Following the use or yielding back 
of time, a vote will occur on or in relation to the Harkin amendment at 
approximately 9:50 tomorrow morning. Following disposition of the 
Harkin amendment, the Senate will resume consideration of Senate bill 
1061, the Labor-HHS appropriations bill.
  Members can expect additional amendments to the Labor-HHS 
appropriations bill to be debated and voted on throughout Wednesday's 
session of the Senate. It is hoped that action on the Labor-HHS 
appropriations bill will be completed during Wednesday's session of the 
Senate.
  As always, Members will be notified as to when additional rollcall 
votes can be expected.

  In addition, the Senate will recess from 12:30 to 2:15 for the weekly 
policy luncheons.
  As indicated earlier, it is hoped that the Senate will complete 
action on both the Labor-HHS and the Interior appropriations bill, and 
hopefully consider the FDA reform legislation this week.
  Therefore, Members can anticipate votes during each day of the 
session this week, including Friday.
