                  ORDERS FOR TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2000

  Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. President, on behalf of the majority leader, I ask 
unanimous consent that when the Senate completes its business today, it 
stand in recess until 2 p.m. Tuesday, and that the time between 2 p.m. 
and 6 p.m. be for a period of morning business with the time between 2 
p.m. and 4 p.m. under the control of Senators Reid and Wellstone and 
from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. under the control of the majority leader.
  I ask unanimous consent that following the recess of the Senate on 
Tuesday, October 31, 2000, the Senate be authorized to receive a 
continuing resolution funding the Government for one day, and that upon 
receipt the continuing resolution be considered passed.
  I further ask unanimous consent that if the Senate receives a 
continuing resolution containing anything other than a one day 
provision, the Senate be authorized to receive that continuing 
resolution, and that at 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, October 31, 2000, the 
Senate reconvene and immediately proceed to the consideration of that 
continuing resolution.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. President, let me announce to the Members exactly 
what this consent would provide.
  The Senate will reconvene at 2 p.m. on Tuesday and basically spend 
the day conducting morning business.
  Assuming the House passes a clean 1-day continuing resolution, that 
would be done without a vote and, therefore, there would be no votes 
during Tuesday's session of the Senate.
  All Senators are reminded that a cloture vote on the bankruptcy bill 
will occur during the day on Wednesday. All Senators will be notified 
as to the exact time of that vote on Wednesday.
