                                PROGRAM

  Mr. BENNETT. Tomorrow morning when the Senate convenes, there will be 
30 minutes of debate prior to a vote on the motion to invoke cloture on 
the pending substitute amendment to S. 830, the FDA reform bill. 
Senators should, therefore, anticipate the first rollcall vote tomorrow 
morning at approximately 10 a.m.
  If cloture is invoked, it is the majority leader's hope that the 
Senate can conclude action on the FDA bill in a reasonable timeframe on 
Tuesday. Under the consent agreement, all Senators have until 10 a.m. 
in order to file second-degree amendments to the FDA bill.
  The Senate will also resume consideration of the Interior 
appropriations bill. Therefore, Senators can expect additional votes on 
Tuesday following the cloture vote.
  This week, the Senate may also consider the D.C. appropriations bill, 
as well as any legislative or executive items that can be cleared for 
action.
