SCHEDULE
Mr. REID. Mr. President, the Senate will soon be considering the
motion to proceed to S. 1925, the Violence Against Women
Reauthorization Act.
At 10:30 this morning, the Senate will resume consideration of the
motion to proceed to S.J. Res. 36, which is a resolution of disapproval
regarding the NLRB election rule. The time until 12:30 today will be
equally divided and controlled between the two leaders, or their
designees.
The Senate will recess from 12:50 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. to allow for the
weekly caucus meetings.
At 2:15 p.m., there will be a rollcall vote on the motion to proceed
to S.J. Res. 36. If that motion is defeated, there will be several
votes following it in order to complete action on the postal reform
bill.
We are going to do our utmost to finish the postal reform bill today.
I recognize that there is an important event with the Supreme Court
today with the legislative branch, the Senate. Therefore, we might have
to come back after that to complete work on this bill, unless there is
a way forward.
I suggest to everyone, if their amendments can be accepted by voice
vote, take that. If something can be worked out with the managers, do
that; otherwise, we might be here until very late tonight. I would like
to avoid that, if possible, for everyone's benefit.
