                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. ROBERTS. Mr. President, today the Senate will be in a period of 
morning business until 1 p.m. Following morning business, the Senate 
will resume consideration of S. 1593, the campaign finance reform bill. 
As a reminder to Members, two cloture motions were filed on the second 
pending amendment on Friday. Therefore, pursuant to rule XXII, those 
votes will occur on Tuesday, 1 hour after the Senate convenes, unless a 
consent agreement is reached to set those votes for a time certain. The 
majority leader has announced that the first vote today will occur at 
5:30 p.m. It is hoped that the 5:30 vote, or votes, will be in relation 
to the amendments to the pending legislation. However, if votes 
regarding the campaign finance reform bill are not possible, the Senate 
will vote on any legislative or executive items available for action.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
  Mr. President, I note the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. THOMAS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

                          ____________________
