                                PROGRAM

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, tomorrow we will make final remarks on the 
Oman free-trade bill. The vote on passage of this bill will be at noon 
tomorrow. This is the first vote of the week. Tomorrow afternoon, at 
2:15, we will take up the nomination of Alice Fisher to be Assistant 
Attorney General. Under the time agreement, there will be 5\1/2\ hours 
of debate; however, I do not believe all the time will be necessary. 
Senators will be notified once that vote has been scheduled.
  Just a moment ago, I filed cloture on the motion to proceed to the 
Secure Fence Act. That vote will occur on Wednesday unless an 
additional agreement is reached.
  I have reminded our colleagues off the floor and will continue to do 
so on the floor with regard to the fact that next week will be a very 
busy week. We will complete our business next week. It means in all 
likelihood that we will have votes on Monday and Friday of next week. 
Although I don't know exactly when we will finish next week, I think it 
is important for people to keep their schedules flexible on Saturday. 
Our intention is to finish--in fact, we will finish--our work by the 
end of next week.
