    AFRICAN GROWTH AND OPPORTUNITY ACT--MOTION TO PROCEED--Continued

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Hampshire.
  Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I understand the Senator from Montana 
wishes to speak. I know there are a number of other Senators who wish 
to speak on the Social Security issue.
  Mr. President, what is the regular order? Do we have an hour?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senate is on the motion to proceed under 
cloture to H.R. 434.
  Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that I be given 15 
minutes as in morning business.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Montana.
  Mr. BAUCUS. Reserving the right to object, my understanding is there 
is no time constraint. We are on the motion to proceed; is that 
correct?
  Mr. GREGG. There is an hour.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Each Senator is limited to no more than 1 
hour.
  Mr. BAUCUS. Asking further clarification, is that on the motion to 
proceed?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. On the motion to proceed.
  Mr. BAUCUS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that following the 
Senator from New Hampshire, I be allowed to speak for 20 minutes as in 
morning business.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The Senator from New Hampshire.
