EXECUTIVE NOMINATIONS
Mr. LOTT. Mr. President, I now have a list of Executive nominations
which have been cleared on both sides.
We have been working on this for several days. A number of these
nominations were running the risk of not being confirmed, or possibly
having recess appointments, which we would like to avoid. This list
includes Executive calendar nominations and nominations to be
discharged from several committees and confirmed.
In executive session, I ask unanimous consent that the nominations I
send to the desk be confirmed, the motions to reconsider be laid upon
the table, the President be immediately notified of the Senate's
action, and the Senate then resume legislative session.
I add that this list is comprised of approximately 41 nominations,
plus an additional list of almost 400 Foreign Service career officers.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
