                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, we will resume 
consideration of the Agriculture appropriations bill, with the time 
until 10:30 equally divided and controlled between the two managers or 
their designees. At 10:30, the Senate will proceed to a series of two 
rollcall votes in relation to the pending McCain amendments. Following 
the votes, the Senate will recess until 2:15 p.m. to allow for the 
weekly caucus luncheons. The time will be expanded a little bit today 
because the Democrats are going to the White House for the caucus 
today, rather than here in the Mansfield Room. As a reminder to all 
Senators, the filing deadline for second-degree amendments is 10:15 
this morning. We have every belief we can complete the Agriculture 
appropriations bill today. I hope so because as soon as we finish that 
we are going to move to the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to be an 
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.
