                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
tomorrow the Senate will be in a period for morning business until 
10:30 a.m. Following morning business, the Senate will resume 
consideration of H.R. 2658, the Department of Defense appropriations 
bill. The chairman and ranking member were able to work through several 
amendments today, and the Senate will continue the amendment process 
tomorrow morning. Several Senators still wish to speak on the bill, and 
I encourage all Members who wish to offer an amendment to contact the 
chairman or the ranking member so they can schedule an orderly 
consideration of all amendments. We remain hopeful that the Senate can 
complete action on this vital appropriations bill during tomorrow's 
session.
