                     CONCLUSION OF MORNING BUSINESS

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Morning business is closed.
  The majority leader is recognized.
  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, first, I very much appreciate our 
colleagues talking on two very important issues this morning in morning 
business. In a very productive way, it highlights the issues that we 
will continue to debate and discuss over the next several days.
  As I mentioned earlier this morning, the plans are to address the 
issues of the Energy bill, as well as the Medicare bill, as well as the 
appropriations bills, over the next several days and bring them to the 
floor as soon as possible, as soon as they are ready, so we can proceed 
with this debate in an orderly fashion.
  As I mentioned earlier this morning, the plans will be to work 
through this week and through the weekend and, hopefully, that will be 
it. Possibly, we might go into the early part of next week.
