                                PROGRAM

  Mr. STEVENS. Mr. President, on behalf of the leader, I make this 
announcement: Tomorrow, following morning business, the Senate will 
resume consideration of the Iraq-Afghanistan supplemental 
appropriations bill. We have invoked cloture on the bill, and therefore 
the only amendments that qualify under the cloture rule will be in 
order to the bill.
  There are still quite a few germane amendments that are pending, and 
therefore we will need a number of rollcall votes prior to final 
passage. It is the leader's hope that we can finish tomorrow, and we 
can finish if we can show restraint and not require votes on each of 
these amendments. Senators should expect a late evening tomorrow as we 
try to finish the bill on Wednesday.
