                                PROGRAM

  Mr. DOMENICI. For the information of all Senators, tomorrow morning 
Senator Dole will deliver her maiden speech. When the Senate resumes 
the Energy bill, Senator Boxer will offer the first of two ethanol 
amendments. The votes in relation to these amendments, as well as the 
pending Schumer amendment, will be stacked to occur later in the day. 
It is hoped that Senators who have additional amendments on any part of 
this bill would make themselves available to offer those amendments so 
that further progress can be made on this important legislation.
  I would also add, it is hoped we can reach an agreement so that all 
of the amendments must be filed at the desk by a time certain. We will 
continue to work toward that agreement.
  Having said that, votes will occur tomorrow on amendments to the 
Energy bill with the hope of making substantial progress.
  If there is no further business to come before the Senate----
  Mr. REID. If I can interrupt my friend, I ask the Senate adjourn 
following the appearance of the Senator from Arkansas, Mr. Pryor, to 
make a unanimous consent request. Following that, the Senate would 
adjourn under the previous order.
  Mr. DOMENICI. I have no objection.
  I repeat to the Senators, we are going to make every effort. The 
distinguished Senators, Mr. Bingaman and Mr. Reid, and myself and the 
distinguished majority leader, we are going to do everything we can to 
try to get a list of amendments and a date certain for first-degree 
amendments with reference to this bill.
  Having said that, votes are going to occur tomorrow on amendments to 
the Energy bill with the hope of making substantial progress.
