                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. For the information of all Senators, tomorrow, 
following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of the 
Foreign Operations appropriations bill. Under the previous order, there 
will be a vote in relation to the Dorgan amendment at approximately 
10:40 a.m. This will be the first vote of the day.
  Following the disposition of the Dorgan amendment, the Senate will 
turn to consideration of H.R. 1904, the Healthy Forests bill. Senator 
Cochran will be on the floor to work through any of those amendments. 
Amendments to this urgent legislation will be offered and debated 
throughout the day. Therefore, Senators should expect rollcall votes 
throughout tomorrow.
  Clearly, if anyone has had their television set on in recent days, it 
is important to move on this Healthy Forests legislation. Fires have 
been burning all over the West.
  A cloture motion was filed this evening on the nomination of Charles 
Pickering to be a Federal circuit judge. That cloture vote will occur 
on Thursday, and Senators will be notified when that vote is scheduled.
  Also, as a reminder, an agreement was reached tonight for the 
consideration of the fair credit reporting bill, and that bill will be 
considered next week.
