                           ORDER OF BUSINESS

  Mr. REID. Would the distinguished majority leader yield for a 
question?
  Mr. FRIST. I yield.

[[Page S1960]]

  Mr. REID. Through the Chair, to my distinguished friend, at 9:45 or 
thereabouts, we are supposed to talk on the mad cow resolution before 
the Senate. We have no morning business, as I understand it. I am not 
going to be here, but I would have a standing objection to any morning 
business. We have had very few amendments completed on the bankruptcy 
matter. Maybe the time on morning business could be yielded off the 
resolution in opposition to that.
  It is my understanding the Senator from Iowa is here to speak in 
morning business.
  Mr. GRASSLEY. Five minutes on the beef resolution because I have to 
go to a committee meeting.
  Mr. REID. Fine. I want to make sure we do not get into extended time 
on morning business because we do not have time.
  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I understand the Senator from Iowa will 
speak on the resolution. For scheduling purposes, he will make that 
statement even if it is before 9:45. Otherwise, as we have discussed, 
we will proceed after my leader statement to Senator Grassley and then 
on to the resolution.
