                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. ENSIGN. Mr. President, today the Senate resumes consideration of 
the motion to proceed to S. 2061, the OB/GYN medical malpractice bill. 
Senators who wish to speak on the bill are encouraged to come to the 
floor during today's session. The Senate will recess from 12:30 until 
2:15 for the weekly party lunches.
  At 5 p.m. the Senate will vote on the motion to invoke cloture on the 
motion to proceed to the bill. As a reminder, last night the majority 
leader filed cloture on the motion to proceed to S. 1805, the gun 
liability bill. The cloture vote on the motion to proceed to the gun 
liability bill will occur on Wednesday.
  I ask unanimous consent that the time until 12:30 p.m. be equally 
divided between the two managers or their designees; provided further 
that the time from 2:15 until 4:50 p.m. be equally divided in the same 
manner; with the final 10 minutes prior to the 5 p.m. cloture vote 
equally divided between the two leaders or their designees, with the 
majority leader in control of the final 5 minutes.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, this is an equitable distribution of time 
and will save a lot of confusion. We therefore agree.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.

                          ____________________
