  Mr. SCHUMER. I ask unanimous consent that the mandatory quorum call 
for the cloture motion filed today, August 3, be waived.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, under the rule, this cloture vote on 
the nominee will occur 1 hour after convening on Thursday.
  For the information of Senators, the process of confirming this 
nominee will in no way interfere with the Senate's continued 
consideration of additional amendments of the bipartisan infrastructure 
bill. We already have a vote on an amendment scheduled tomorrow and 
expect further votes as well.
