                                PROGRAM

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
tomorrow the Senate will be in a period of morning business until 11:30 
a.m. Following morning business, the Senate will begin up to 15 minutes 
of debate on the nomination of David Campbell to be a U.S. District 
Judge for the District of Arizona. At 11:45 a.m., the Senate will vote 
on the Campbell nomination. Immediately following that vote, the Senate 
will proceed to a vote on the motion to invoke cloture on the 
nomination of Victor Wolski to be a judge of the U.S. Court of Federal 
Claims. Therefore, the first vote in tomorrow's session will occur at 
11:45 a.m. That vote will be the first of two back-to-back votes.
  For the remainder of the day, the Senate will resume debate on the 
motion to proceed to S. 11, the Patients First Act. A short while ago, 
I filed a cloture motion on the motion to proceed to the bill and that 
cloture vote will occur on Wednesday.
  In addition to debating the motion to proceed tomorrow, the Senate 
may proceed to any Executive Calendar item that can be cleared for 
action. Therefore, Senators should anticipate additional votes during 
tomorrow's session.
  I thank the distinguished majority whip for his leadership on 
managing the attempt to proceed to the underlying bill today. The 
debate, I thought, was superb. I outlined a number of the issues that 
we should aggressively be addressing on the floor of the Senate for the 
benefit of the American people.
