                  UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--S. 812

  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that 
notwithstanding the provisions of rule XXII, the Senate at 9:30 a.m. 
tomorrow resume consideration of S. 812; that there be 90 minutes for 
debate on the motion to waive the Budget Act with respect to Senator 
Graham's amendment equally divided between Senator Graham and Senator 
Grassley; that if the motion to waive fails and the amendment falls, 
then the underlying Dorgan amendment be agreed to and the Senate vote 
immediately on cloture on the generic drug bill, S. 812; further that 
if cloture is invoked, the bill be read a third time and the Senate 
then vote immediately on final passage of the bill, with the preceding 
all occurring without any intervening action or debate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Mr. GRAMM. Reserving the right to object, I suggest the absence of a 
quorum.

  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. 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for the quorum call be rescinded.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. Mr. President, I again propound the request.
