                    ORDERS FOR TUESDAY, MAY 20, 2003

  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the 
Senate completes its business today, it stand in adjournment until 9:30 
a.m. Tuesday, May 20. I further ask that following the prayer and 
pledge, the morning hour be deemed expired, the Journal of proceedings 
be approved to date, the time for the two leaders be reserved for their 
use later in the day, and the Senate then begin a period of morning 
business with the time until 10 a.m. equally divided between Senator 
Cornyn and the minority leader or their designees, provided that at 10 
a.m. the Senate resume consideration of S. 1050, the Department of 
Defense authorization bill.
  I further ask consent that the Senate recess from 12:30 p.m. to 2:15 
p.m. for the weekly party lunches.
  Mr. REID. It is my understanding the two leaders are going to attempt 
to arrange votes on the two matters now pending before the Senate; that 
is, the Daschle amendment and the amendment offered by the Senator from 
South Carolina, and we would like to see if that be can be arranged 
prior to the recess Tuesday. That is not done yet, but Members should 
contemplate two votes before our noon recess.
  Mr. WARNER. I understand the representation is accurate.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection to the unanimous consent 
request?
  Mr. REID. No objection.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
