                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. DASCHLE. The pending business today is the farm bill, and we are 
awaiting the legislation to be introduced.
  I ask unanimous consent that following the colloquy or the statement 
made by the Senator from Massachusetts, the Senate proceed to 
consideration of the bill itself for debate purposes only.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. KERRY. Madam President, I thank the distinguished majority 
leader, and I thank the Chair.
