be up to 4 hours of debate prior to a vote on the motion to proceed to 
S. 940; that the vote on the motion to proceed be subject to a 60-vote 
threshold; that the motion to reconsider be considered made and laid on 
the table, with no intervening action or debate; further, that at 10:30

hours of debate prior to a vote on the motion to proceed to the bill; 
that the vote on the motion to proceed be subject to a 60-vote
