                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, we are going to be in a period of morning 
business for 90 minutes. The Republicans will control the first 45 
minutes, the majority will have the remaining 45 minutes. Following 
this period of morning business, the Senate will resume the ethics 
legislation that is pending before this body.
  Yesterday, I indicated we would vote this morning on the Stevens 
second-degree amendment dealing with airplanes. However, Senator 
Stevens decided to withdraw the amendment in preparation to file 
another one. There were some problems with that, as he indicated to me. 
I am sure he will have a new amendment soon. He is working with 
somebody on this side of the aisle, I understand, to come up with a 
second-degree amendment.
  Other amendments offered yesterday are still pending, and, again, I 
hope we can move forward in disposing of these amendments. I think 
Senator Durbin will be here soon--as soon as we have the opportunity 
after we finish morning business--to move to table some of the 
amendments dealing with appropriations matters.
