  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate now 
proceed to a period of morning business, with Senators allowed to speak 
for up to 10 minutes each.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, just a unanimous consent request: Senator 
Leahy wishes to speak for 20 minutes, and Senator Kennedy for 30 
minutes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The Senator from Vermont.
  Mr. LEAHY. Mr. President, what was the previous unanimous consent 
agreement of the time for the Senator from Vermont?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The previous order had Senator Kennedy 
receiving 30 minutes.
  Mr. LEAHY. But prior to the votes, wasn't there--
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Vermont already had 20 
minutes.
  Mr. LEAHY. I thank the distinguished Presiding Officer.
  Does the distinguished majority leader have other matters?
