                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. GORTON. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, under 
the order of last night, the Senate will be in a period of morning 
business until 12:30 p.m. Following morning business, the Senate will 
begin debate on the conference report to accompany the education 
flexibility bill. By previous order, there are 3 hours of debate on the 
conference report, and a vote can be expected at the conclusion or 
yielding back of that time.
  On Tuesday, a cloture motion was filed on the lockbox amendment to S. 
557. Therefore, Senators should expect that cloture vote on Thursday. 
As a reminder, pursuant to rule XXII, second-degree amendments must be 
filed 1 hour prior to a vote on cloture.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
  Mr. President, I seek recognition in my own right. I believe the 
remarks I am about to make are more proper from my own desk than from 
the majority leader's.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Crapo). If the Senator will permit, the 
Chair will read these orders and then the time will be granted.
