                           EXECUTIVE SESSION

  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, pursuant to the order of July 24, I now 
ask that the Senate proceed to executive session to consider the 
nominations of Wade Horn and Hector Barreto. I believe the time 
allotted for Mr. Horn is 2 hours and the time for Mr. Barreto is a half 
hour.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. Madam President, will the majority leader yield?
  Mr. DASCHLE. I am happy to yield.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. I do want to say to the majority leader, I do not 
think we will need anywhere near that much time. So I say it can 
probably be done in an hour with people speaking on both sides.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, for the information of our colleagues, 
it may be that we will have one rollcall vote on the Iran-Libyan 
Sanctions Act at some point. Currently, it is scheduled for 6:30. I 
understand that vote has been scheduled for 6:30 to accommodate some 
Senators who are attending a memorial service. I would suggest we 
proceed now to the nomination of Mr. Horn. And we will provide our 
colleagues with more information as it is made available to us. I yield 
the floor.
