                                PROGRAM

  Mr. COATS. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
tomorrow morning at 11 a.m. the Senate will resume consideration of the 
Craig amendment numbered 2316 to the NATO enlargement treaty.
  Under the previous order, at noon Senator Moynihan will be recognized 
to offer an amendment under a 1-hour time agreement.
  Following the debate on the Moynihan amendment, Senator Warner will 
be recognized to offer an amendment under a 2-hour time agreement.
  Following the debate on the Warner amendment, at approximately 3 
p.m., at the conclusion of that debate, the Senate will proceed to 
three stacked rollcall votes.
  The first vote will be on or in relation to the Moynihan amendment, 
followed by a vote on or in relation to the Warner amendment, followed 
then by a vote on or in relation to the Craig amendment.
  As a reminder, a unanimous consent agreement was reached which limits 
the amendments to the NATO treaty. It is hoped that any Senator still 
intending to offer an amendment under the consent agreement will do so 
early tomorrow to allow the Senate to complete action on this important 
document by early tomorrow evening.
  Also, if available, the Senate may consider the conference report to 
accompany the supplemental appropriations bill.
  Therefore, Senators should expect rollcall votes throughout the 
Thursday session of the Senate.
  Mr. President, that is an ambitious schedule. Senators are urged to 
be timely. Senators are urged, those who may have additional amendments 
to the NATO enlargement treaty, to make those amendments known to 
leadership, and hopefully reasonable time requests can be entered into. 
A number of Senators are making very important official business 
commitments for the weakend, and the more definite the plans can be 
about the schedule tomorrow, the more expeditiously those commitments 
can be undertaken.
