                          LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM

  (Mr. DREIER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. DREIER. Mr. Speaker, tomorrow it is our intent to proceed with 
consideration of the defense authorization bill. During that time we 
will be considering 21 amendments. It is our hope that we will be 
completed at around 5:30 because, as you know, the Speaker of the House 
and the Senate majority leader extended an invitation to the President 
of the United States and he will be addressing us here at 9 o'clock 
tomorrow evening. I just wanted to take this time to explain exactly 
what it is we are doing.
