SCHEDULE
Mr. REID. Mr. President, we will move directly to the bill. If
Senator McConnell wishes to speak, he has that right. We will move to
H.R. 4213, the Tax Extenders Act. Last night, we were able to reach
agreement on the next amendments in order. Those amendments will be
offered soon, and I hope we will be able to reach agreement to vote in
relation to the pending amendments. I am going to offer an amendment on
behalf of Senator Murray. Senator Sanders will offer one. Then there
will be two Republican amendments. We have to kind of clear the decks.
There will be no more amendments until we can make some arrangement to
dispose of what has already been laid down. We have three. These four
more means seven amendments. There will be two Democratic amendments
this morning, two Republican amendments. That will mean a total of
seven amendments. We have to take a pause then and try to get rid of
some of these, voting on them before we move to others.
We can now move to the bill, Mr. President.
