            UNANIMOUS CONSENT AGREEMENT--EXECUTIVE CALENDAR

  Mr. CAMPBELL. Madam President, speaking for the leader, as in 
executive session, I ask unanimous consent that at 5:30 p.m. today, the 
Senate proceed to executive session to consider the following 
nomination on today's Executive Calendar: Calendar No. 358, the 
nomination of Larry Burns to be a U.S. District Judge for the Southern 
District of California. I further ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to a vote on the confirmation of the nomination; that following 
the vote, the President be immediately notified of the Senate's action; 
and that the Senate then return to legislative session.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection? The Democratic whip.
  Mr. REID. Reserving the right to object, and I will not object, this 
is the 154th judge we have approved. As I recall, there are three we 
have not approved. It is 154 to 3. That is a pretty good record.
  I also ask that the unanimous consent request be modified to allow 
Senator Boxer 2 minutes to speak prior to the vote on the nomination of 
Larry Burns.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Does the Senator so modify his unanimous 
consent request?
  Mr. CAMPBELL. I so modify the request.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. CAMPBELL. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
