                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. CRAPO. Mr. President, today the Senate will immediately begin 
consideration of the Abraham-Mack amendment regarding merit pay for 
teachers. Following that debate, Senator Murray will be recognized to 
offer her amendment regarding class size. No time agreements have been 
made with regard to these amendments, and therefore votes will occur at 
a time to be determined in the future. Senators will be notified as 
votes are scheduled.
  The Senate will not be in session tomorrow. However, it is expected 
that debate on the Elementary and Secondary Education Act will continue 
next week.
  I thank my colleagues for their attention.
  Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. ABRAHAM. I ask unanimous consent that the order for the quorum 
call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Crapo). Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
