                                PROGRAM

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, today I offered the bipartisan substitute 
amendment. Four amendments are pending as well. Today, I alerted 
Members to expect votes tomorrow. Also, I remind Members that all 
Members of the 110th Congress have been invited to the Supreme Court 
tomorrow. There is a dinner. There is no cocktail hour and no 
reception. The dinner will begin promptly at 6:30 tomorrow evening. I 
have been to these events over the years, and they are really good. We 
have to reach out to our separate but equal branch of Government called 
the judicial branch. I find all nine of those Justices to be the most 
interesting people. They have such a tremendous responsibility. I think 
it will be good conversation, with a limited speech or two. I hope 
freshman Senators can find it in their schedules to come. It is also 
for the spouses.
