                                PROGRAM

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, earlier tonight I filed cloture on the 
Dorgan substitute amendment and the Energy and Water Appropriations 
bill, and under rule XXII, that means first-degree amendments must be 
filed at the desk prior to 1 p.m. tomorrow.
  For the information of the Senate, it is my intention to turn to the 
Agriculture appropriations bill upon the completion of the Energy and 
Water bill. I have said there are certain things we have to get done 
before we leave. I hope we do not have to have this cloture vote on 
Thursday. I hope we can get to the bill and move to the Agriculture 
appropriations bill. If not, then we are going to have to work through 
the weekend because there are certain things--it is not a very long 
list--we have to do before we leave.
