                                PROGRAM

  Mr. DeWINE. When the Senate convenes at 9:30 a.m., the Senate will be 
in a period of morning business until 11 a.m. for statements in memory 
of Senator Paul Coverdell. Following morning business, the Senate will 
have a swearing-in ceremony for Senator-designate Zell Miller. After 
the ceremony and the remarks by the Senator-designate, the Senate will 
proceed to a cloture vote on the motion to proceed to the energy and 
water appropriations bill. By previous order, following the cloture 
vote, the Senate will begin consideration of the conference report to 
accompany the Department of Defense appropriations bill, with a vote to 
occur at approximately 3:15 p.m. Assuming cloture is invoked on the 
motion to proceed to the energy and water appropriations bill, the 
Senate will then begin 30 hours of postcloture debate.
  As a reminder, cloture was filed on the motion to proceed to the PNTR 
China legislation during today's session. It is hoped an agreement can 
be made to schedule that vote for tomorrow afternoon.
