                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. JEFFORDS. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
this morning the Senate will be in a period of morning business until 
12 o'clock noon. As a reminder, the leader has announced that no votes 
will occur during today's session. The Senate may take up and consider 
any executive or legislative items that can be cleared for action. The 
Senate may also attempt to reach time agreements on several high-tech 
bills.
  On Monday, May 11, the Senate may consider the agricultural research 
conference report, along with a number of high-tech bills if agreements 
can be reached on those items. The Senate may also begin consideration 
of S. 1873, the missile defense bill. Again, no votes will occur during 
Monday's session.

  On Tuesday morning, May 12, the Senate will attempt to reach a time 
agreement on a D'Amato bill regarding inpatient health care for breast 
cancer. The Senate will also resume and attempt to complete action on 
any high-tech bills not completed on Monday. Any votes ordered to occur 
with respect to the agricultural research conference report and the 
high-tech bills will be postponed to occur on Tuesday, May 12, at 12 
noon. Therefore, the next rollcall votes will occur at 12 noon on 
Tuesday.
  Finally, it will be the leader's intention to begin consideration of 
the DOD authorization bill during the latter part of the week.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
