                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. For the information of all Senators, tomorrow the 
Senate will resume consideration of the Leavitt nomination to be 
Administrator of EPA. Under the previous order, there will be 1 hour of 
debate prior to the vote on the nomination. The vote on the Leavitt 
nomination, therefore, will occur at around 10:30 a.m. tomorrow. That 
vote will be the first vote of the day.
  Following the disposition of the Leavitt nomination, the Senate will 
resume debate on the foreign operations appropriations bill. There are 
several amendments pending that have been laid aside. As the chairman 
of that subcommittee, the manager of that bill, it is our hope and 
expectation--and I know I speak for Senator Leahy when I say this--that 
we will wrap up the foreign operations bill sometime tomorrow night. 
There is really not a flood of amendments on either side, and there is 
no reason we should not be able to march on through that bill tomorrow 
and finish it up tomorrow night.
  Therefore, Senators obviously should expect rollcall votes throughout 
the day tomorrow.
    

                  ADJOURNMENT UNTIL 9:30 A.M. TOMORROW

  Mr. McCONNELL. If there is no further business to come before the 
Senate, I ask that the Senate stand in adjournment under the previous 
order.
  There being no objection, the Senate, at 7:37 p.m., adjourned until 
Tuesday, October 28, 2003, at 9:30 a.m.
