                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will 
resume consideration of the emergency supplemental appropriations bill. 
There will be up to 2 hours for debate in relation to the Inouye 
amendment. That is the Inouye-Inhofe amendment. The Republicans will 
control the first 30 minutes, the majority will control the next 30 
minutes, and the final hour will be equally divided and controlled 
between the two leaders or their designees, with Senators permitted to 
speak for up to 10 minutes each. Senator Inouye will control the final 
5 minutes prior to the vote. Upon the use or yielding back of time, the 
Senate will proceed to vote on the amendment. Senators should expect 
the first vote of the day to begin around 11:30 to a quarter of 12.
  Yesterday, I filed cloture on this legislation. Under rule XXII, 
germane first-degree amendments must be filed by 1 p.m. today.
  If we are able to reach an agreement, we will also consider the 
conference report to accompany S. 454, the procurement legislation, 
during the day.
