                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. STEVENS. Mr. President, today by previous order the Senate will 
begin 1 hour of morning business to be followed by 2 hours of debate on 
S. 335, the Deceptive Mail Prevention and Enforcement Act regarding 
sweepstakes. The first rollcall vote today will occur at 5:30 p.m. on 
passage of the sweepstakes legislation. At 3 p.m. today, the Senate 
will resume consideration of the Agriculture appropriations bill. It is 
hoped that Senators who have amendments will work with the bill 
managers to schedule time to debate those amendments. Additional votes 
beyond the 5:30 vote could occur relative to the Agriculture 
appropriations bill. It is the intention of the majority leader to 
complete action on as many appropriations bills as possible before the 
August recess. Therefore, Senators should be prepared to vote into the 
evenings throughout this whole week.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
  I yield the floor.
