                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, on 
Thursday, there will be a period for the transaction of morning 
business until 10 a.m. Following morning business, the Senate will 
begin consideration of the VA-HUD conference report under a 1-hour time 
agreement. At 11 a.m., the Senate will proceed to vote on the adoption 
of the VA-HUD conference report.
  Following that vote, the Senate may resume consideration of the 
Internet tax bill or begin consideration of the intelligence 
authorization conference report, the human services reauthorization 
conference report and possibly the Treasury-Postal appropriations 
conference report. The Senate may also consider any other available 
conference reports or other legislative or executive items cleared for 
action.
  Once again, the leader would like to stress to all Members that there 
are only a few days remaining in which to complete many important 
legislative items. Therefore, Members are encouraged to be flexible to 
accommodate a busy schedule, with votes occurring throughout each day 
and into the evenings.
