                                PROGRAM

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, tomorrow, following morning business, the 
Senate will resume debate on the motion to proceed to the marriage 
amendment. Senators will be speaking on this issue throughout the day 
tomorrow, and I encourage those Members who have not had a chance to 
speak to come to the floor during tomorrow's session. I remind my 
colleagues that moments ago I filed cloture on the motion to proceed to 
the joint resolution. I felt it necessary to file cloture in order to 
ensure that we not only be able to bring the legislation up for 
consideration, but also to ensure the ability to offer amendments. If 
we are able to reach an agreement, then we would vitiate that scheduled 
cloture vote.
