                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will 
resume consideration of the motion to proceed to S. 2230, the Paying A 
Fair Share Act, with the time until 11:30 a.m. equally divided and 
controlled between the two leaders or their designees. The majority 
will control the first 30 minutes and the Republicans the next 30 
minutes.
  The filing deadline for second-degree amendments to S. 2204 is 10:30 
a.m. this morning.
  At 11:30 a.m., there will be a cloture vote on the Repeal Big Oil Tax 
Subsidies Act.
  The Transportation bill expires at the end of this month, so that 
will have to be addressed before we leave this week. We are waiting to 
see what the House is doing. As I think a lot of people know, they have 
tried, the Republican leadership there has tried, to bring up a bill on 
two separate occasions. They had to bring it down because they did not 
have the votes to pass what they wanted. So I assume something will 
pass over there--I guess. We have been waiting all week. I am confident 
they can scrounge up 218 votes.
