                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, this morning the Senate will proceed to a 
period of morning business. Senators will be allowed to speak for up to 
10 minutes each. There will be no rollcall votes during today's 
session.
  However, there will be a vote Tuesday morning before the caucus, 
probably an hour after we come in, but we will make that decision a 
little later today. We will see if we can get agreement. If not, that 
is what we will try to do.
  We will continue to try to reach an agreement to consider an act to 
extend for 30 days certain expiring provisions, including unemployment 
insurance, COBRA, flood insurance, highway funding, small business 
loans, and small business provisions of the American Recovery Act, the 
Satellite Home View Act, the SGR, and poverty provisions.
  All these are extremely important, especially to those people who are 
unemployed, and those people who on midnight Sunday night will lose the 
ability--1.5 million people in rural America--to watch local 
television.
