        MEASURES PLACED ON THE CALENDAR--H.R. 2291 AND H.R. 2833

  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I understand that the following bills are 
at the desk, having been read the first time: H.R. 2291 and H.R. 2833. 
I ask unanimous consent that it be in order, en bloc, for these two 
bills to receive a second reading, and I would then object to any 
further consideration.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered. The bills will be placed on the calendar.
  Mr. DASCHLE. I yield the floor.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Minnesota.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. Mr. President, I ask the majority leader, am I correct 
that after the caucuses, there will be a short period of time for 
morning business, or do we know for sure?
  Mr. DASCHLE. I respond to the Senator from Minnesota, there probably 
will be some time, but we will be in morning business at least for 
another 15 minutes.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. This morning.
  Mr. DASCHLE. This morning.
  Mr. WELLSTONE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that I have 5 
minutes--I do not intend to take any more than that--in morning 
business.


  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
