                            MORNING BUSINESS

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the previous order, there will now be a 
period for the transaction of morning business for not to extend beyond 
the hour of 12 o'clock noon, at which time, under the previous order, 
the Senate will proceed, for debate only, to the consideration of H.R. 
2676.
  Under the previous order, the Senator from North Dakota is recognized 
at this time.
  Mr. DORGAN. Mr. President, my understanding is the 30 minutes that I 
am able to use under a previous unanimous consent agreement will bump 
up against the 12 o'clock time. I ask unanimous consent that the 12 
o'clock time be modified so I may use the entire 30 minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. The 
Senator is permitted to speak until 12:15 p.m.
