ORDER OF BUSINESS
Mr. REID. Mr. President, for the benefit of all Senators and staff,
people have worked very hard. Lots of Senators, 20 Senators, have been
involved, and many more off and on, but 20 on a continual basis all day
today and even last night. The amendment is ready but we have to make
sure it is truly ready. I have been to a few of these rodeos, and we
want to make sure the amendment that has been worked on all day is
going to be one that is the final one. We don't want to have an
amendment and then have to deal with it in some other way.
So what we are going to do tomorrow is we are going to come in at
10:30 and, hopefully, at that time we will be in a position to move
forward on this legislation. Right now, it seems it would be senseless
for us to stay any longer tonight because it is simply not going to be
ready before midnight.
