                       INTELLIGENCE AUTHORIZATION

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I didn't mention this in our private 
conversation, but we are going to do the Defense bill hopefully before 
we leave, and the one thing we haven't talked about is the Intelligence 
authorization bill. That has been reported out of the committee. I 
think we could have a very short time agreement--I mean very short. Is 
there a way the leader would try to work that into the schedule before 
we go? Because this would be the second year without an intelligence 
authorization bill.
  Mr. FRIST. Let's consider that. I think over the next day or so we 
need to get together and go through all we do need to accomplish before 
we leave for that month for the August recess. Let's talk specifically 
about that bill as well.
  Mr. REID. Yes.
