consultation with Senator McConnell, the Senate proceed to vote on the 
motion to invoke cloture on the McConnell motion to proceed to Calendar 
No. 19, S. 16; that if cloture is not invoked, the motion to proceed be

cloture on the Reid motion to proceed to Calendar No. 18, S. 388; 
further, if cloture is invoked on the McConnell motion to proceed, the 
motion to proceed be agreed to and the Senate resume consideration of 
the Reid motion to proceed to S. 388 and vote on the motion to invoke 
cloture on the Reid motion; that if cloture is invoked on the Reid 
motion, the motion to proceed be agreed to; that if the motion to 
proceed to S. 16 was previously agreed to, the Senate then resume 
consideration of the bill and, upon disposition of S. 16, the Senate 
resume consideration of S. 388 if the motion to proceed was previously 
agreed to.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
