                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following any leader remarks, there will be 
a period of morning business until 2:15 p.m. today, with Senators 
permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes. At 10:30, Senator Moran will 
be recognized to speak for up to 15 minutes to deliver his maiden 
speech to the Senate. At 2:15 p.m., the Senate will proceed to 
executive session to consider the nomination of Max Oliver Cogburn, 
Jr., of North Carolina, to be U.S. District Judge for the Western 
District of North Carolina.


                      unanimous consent agreement

  Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that there be a total of 45 
minutes for debate on the nomination, with the provisions of the 
previous order remaining in effect, and that the vote on confirmation 
of the nomination occur at 3 p.m. today rather than at 2:30.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  Mr. REID. As a result of the agreement just entered, there will be a 
vote on confirmation of the Cogburn nomination at 3 p.m. today.
  Further, the Senate Small Business Committee reported S. 493, the 
SBIR and STTR Reauthorization Act of 2011. They did that yesterday, and 
we hope to begin consideration of that bill early next week.
