                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, just some information for my friend 
from Vermont. We had anticipated after my remarks of going to the 
comments of Senator Alexander and Senator Corker in connection with the 
life of Senator Howard Baker. So I ask unanimous consent at this point 
that the Senators from Tennessee follow my remarks on Senator Baker.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Vermont.
  Mr. LEAHY. Mr. President, reserving the right to object, and I shall 
not, of course, because as I told the press in Vermont last week, I had 
the privilege of serving with more than 10 leaders in both parties 
since I have been here, and it is impossible to find a finer leader 
than Howard Baker. I considered him to be a Senator's Senator and one 
of the finest people I have ever served with. So of course I will wait.
  I would ask to amend the unanimous consent request so that following 
the remarks of the Republican leader and the two Senators from 
Tennessee I then be recognized for my remarks.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Will the leader modify his request?
  Mr. McCONNELL. Yes.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
