                           ORDER OF BUSINESS

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DASCHLE. Madam President, under a previous order, we had agreed 
to a vote at 6:30 p.m. I know the memorial service is still underway. 
We will accommodate Senators who have other plans. I ask that we 
proceed with the vote. I also note this will be the last vote of the 
evening.
  I have not yet been given a report from our negotiators as to the 
status of the ongoing discussions with regard to Mexican trucking, but 
I will file a cloture motion tonight and expect if we are able to 
resolve these questions, we can vitiate it in the morning. With that, I 
think we ought to proceed with the vote.
