                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, for the information of all Senators, 
today, following the period of morning business, the Senate will resume 
debate on the energy and water appropriations bill. The two managers 
will be here beginning at 2:30 this afternoon, and Senator Feinstein 
will offer the first amendment. It is hoped that if other Members have 
amendments to the legislation, they will be available to offer their 
amendments as well.
  As the majority leader stated last week, there will be no rollcall 
votes during today's session. Any votes ordered will be held over until 
Tuesday's session of the Senate. Also, under a previous order, the 
first rollcall vote tomorrow will occur at around 10:30 a.m. That vote 
will be on the passage of S.J. Res. 17, which is the FCC rule 
disapproval resolution.
  Also, I remind our colleagues that today the Senate will also debate 
a motion relative to going to conference with the House on the partial-
birth abortion ban bill. That agreement calls for up to 8 hours of 
debate, and it is the understanding that 2 of those hours will be 
consumed today. Therefore, following the conclusion of any business on 
the energy and water bill today, the Senate will consider that motion 
for up to 2 hours.
