                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Madam President, following leader remarks, the Senate will 
be in a period of morning business for 2 hours. The Republicans will 
control the first half and the majority will control the final half.
  Following morning business, the Senate will begin consideration of 
S.J. Res. 10 and S.J. Res. 24, both resolutions regarding balanced 
budget amendments. The Republican leader and I, yesterday, arrived at 
an agreement that we would have 8 hours of debate on this matter, and I 
think it should be a good debate. People have been looking forward to 
this debate for some time. Some are more interested than others, and 
this should give them ample time to say whatever they feel about this 
issue that is ripe for debate in the Senate and certainly the votes we 
will have tomorrow morning.
  The Senate will recess this afternoon from 12:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. 
for the weekly caucus meetings.
