                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will be 
in a period of morning business, with Senators allowed to speak therein 
for up to 10 minutes each.
  There will be no rollcall votes today. Our next vote will be a week 
from Monday at about 5:30. We will have a number of votes--we hope two 
or three, but at least we will have one.
  We finished a difficult bill yesterday, the supplemental 
appropriations bill. It was tedious, but it was done very well. 
Senators Inouye and Cochran did an outstanding job. Members from both 
sides with strong feelings were able to compromise on a number of 
issues and allow us to finish this bill. The same thing happened--it 
took a little longer--on the Wall Street reform bill. Both of those 
pieces of legislation are now in conference.
  We are going to await the action of the House before we can determine 
the direction of what we do with the extenders bill, the jobs bill. I 
will have some meetings during this coming week to determine how we 
will change the bill we get from the House. I think the changes should 
not be major, but there will be some, and we have to work through that. 
I have spoken with the Republican leader, and we are going to have to 
have a number of amendments--not a large number, but we need to work 
through that, because the next work period is relatively short.
  We don't have many speakers coming today, so the session should be 
relatively short.
  I ask the Chair to announce morning business.
