                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent at the conclusion of 
the vote on the motion to invoke cloture on the Lieberman substitute 
amendment, regardless of the outcome, the Senate stand in recess until 
5:15 p.m. today; further, notwithstanding rule XXII, the vote on the 
motion to invoke cloture on the Gramm-Miller amendment No. 4738 occur 
at 5:30 today, with the time between 5:15 and 5:30 equally divided and 
controlled between the two leaders or their designees; and that second-
degree amendments to the Gramm-Miller amendment may be filed until 6 
p.m. today.
  When this vote is completed, we will be in recess until 5:15. Both 
parties are having conferences. Following that, there will be 15 
minutes of debate and then there will be a vote on cloture on the 
Gramm-Miller amendment.
  I would say this has been a long struggle getting to where we are 
today. I express my appreciation to the manager of the bill, Senator 
Thompson, and of course the person we have heard a lot from in the last 
several days, my friend, the distinguished senior Senator from Texas, 
Mr. Gramm.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.


                             cloture motion

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Under the previous order, pursuant to rule 
XXII, the Chair lays before the Senate the pending cloture motion, 
which the clerk will report.
  The legislative clerk read as follows:

                             Cloture Motion

       We, the undersigned Senators, in accordance with the 
     provisions of rule XXII of the Standing Rules of the Senate, 
     hereby move to bring to a close the debate on the Lieberman 
     substitute amendment No. 4471 for H.R. 5005, the Homeland 
     Security bill:
         Debbie Stabenow, Harry Reid, Charles Schumer, Evan Bayh, 
           Mark Dayton, Jeff Sessions, John Edwards, Jim Jeffords, 
           Joseph Lieberman, Bill Nelson of Florida, Blanche L. 
           Lincoln, Byron L. Dorgan, Jack Reed, Patrick Leahy, 
           Robert C. Byrd, Mary Landrieu, Max Baucus.

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. By unanimous consent, the mandatory quorum 
call under the rule is waived.
  The question is, Is it the sense of the Senate that debate on the 
Lieberman amendment No. 4471 to H.R. 5005, an act to establish the 
Department of Homeland Security and for other purposes, shall be 
brought to a close?
  The yeas and nays are required under the rule.
  The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk called the roll.
  Mr. REID. I announce that the Senator from Louisiana (Ms. Landrieu) 
is necessarily absent.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mrs. Lincoln). Are there any other Senators in 
the Chamber desiring to vote?
  The result was announced--yeas 50, nays 49, as follows:
