                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. JEFFORDS. Mr. President, this morning the Senate is immediately 
resuming consideration of S. 830, the FDA reform legislation. In a 
moment we will begin two consecutive rollcall votes on or in relation 
to the pending amendments offered by Senator Durbin. Following those 
votes, additional amendments are expected and therefore rollcall votes 
will occur throughout the day.
  Under the consent agreement there are 5 hours remaining for debate 
prior to a vote on the pending substitute amendment. I hope that once 
the debate time has expired, the Senate will be able to proceed to a 
vote and then passage of this important legislation.
  The majority leader has also stated that this week the Senate will 
consider the D.C. appropriations bill and any appropriations conference 
reports that become available.
  I yield the floor.

                          ____________________
