SCHEDULE
Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will
resume consideration of the House message to H.R. 2847, the HIRE Act.
There will be 10 minutes for debate, equally divided and controlled
between Senators Gregg and Schumer or their designees. We expect
Senator Gregg to make a budget point of order with respect to the bill.
At approximately 9:45, the Senate will proceed to a series of two
rollcall votes: the motion to waive the Gregg budget point of order and
the motion to concur in the House amendments to the Senate amendment to
the House amendment to the Senate amendment to H.R. 2847.
Upon disposition of the HIRE Act, the Senate will resume
consideration of FAA reauthorization. The Senate will recess from 12:30
until 2 p.m. for a special Democratic caucus.
When the Senate reconvenes at 2 p.m., there will be a live quorum.
Senators are requested to come to the floor at that time. When a quorum
is present, the Senate will receive the House managers for the purpose
of presenting and exhibiting articles of impeachment against G. Thomas
Porteous, judge of the U.S. Eastern District of Louisiana. Once the
House managers are received, Senators will be sworn. Then Senators will
be required to sign the Secretary's oath book.
In addition, rollcall votes in relation to FAA are expected
throughout the day.
