                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will be 
in a period of morning business. Senator Rockefeller will then be 
recognized for as much time as he may consume. Following his remarks, 
there will be an additional 2 hours of morning business. The majority 
will control the first hour and the Republicans will control the next 
hour.
  Following morning business, the Senate will resume postcloture debate 
on the nomination of David Hamilton to be U.S. circuit judge for the 
Seventh Circuit.
  The postcloture debate time expires about 11 p.m. tonight. It is my 
hope that time will not be necessary because it is basically wasted 
Senate time.
  Yesterday, we were able to reach an agreement to consider S. 1963, 
the Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2009 upon 
disposition of the Hamilton nomination. Senators should expect votes in 
relation to the Coburn amendment and passage of the bill.
