                                PROGRAM

  Mr. NICKLES. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, the 
Senate will be in a period of morning business tomorrow until 10 a.m. 
Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of the 
Patients' Bill of Rights. Further amendments to the bill are expected 
to be offered and debated throughout Tuesday's session of the Senate. 
For the information of all Senators, votes can be expected on or in 
relation to the pending amendments throughout Tuesday's session.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, if the Senator will yield, I also alert 
Members that tomorrow at 10 o'clock when we come in we are going to 
complete debate on the emergency care amendment that was offered this 
evening. The majority has about 35 minutes and the minority about 10 
minutes, so that Members have some idea of what we are going to be 
doing at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Those wishing to speak on that 
issue should be ready to do so.
  Mr. NICKLES. Mr. President, I appreciate my colleague's thoughts on 
that. For the information of all Senators, we will be debating the 
emergency room amendment at 10 o'clock followed by subsequent 
amendments.
