                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
tomorrow the Senate will be in a period for

[[Page 17828]]

morning business until 10:30 a.m. Following morning business, the 
Senate will resume consideration of H.R. 2658, the Department of 
Defense appropriations bill. The chairman and ranking member were able 
to work through several amendments today, and the Senate will continue 
the amendment process tomorrow morning. Several Senators still wish to 
speak on the bill, and I encourage all Members who wish to offer an 
amendment to contact the chairman or the ranking member so they can 
schedule an orderly consideration of all amendments. We remain hopeful 
that the Senate can complete action on this vital appropriations bill 
during tomorrow's session.
