            CONDITIONAL ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the 
Senate completes its business today, it stand in adjournment sine die 
under the provisions of H. Con. Res. 326, and when the Senate 
reconvenes at 12 noon on January 3, it be for a pro forma session only, 
and that no business be in order and the Senate then automatically 
adjourn until 10 a.m. on January 18 as under the provisions of that 
resolution, or until 8 p.m. on December 22 if the House does not adopt 
S. Con. Res. 74. I further ask that on whichever day the Senate 
reconvenes, following the prayer and the pledge, the morning hour be 
deemed to have expired, the Journal of the proceedings be approved to 
date, and the time for the two leaders be reserved, and then the Senate 
proceed to a period of morning business.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
