                         EXECUTIVE NOMINATIONS

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, last month, the Judiciary Committee 
reported the nomination of Henry Saad to be a U.S. circuit judge for 
the Sixth Circuit. I understand the other side will not agree to a time 
agreement for an up-or-down vote on this nomination. In addition, the 
Judiciary Committee reported two more Sixth Circuit nominations today. 
I hope that we could have the Senate vote on each of these judicial 
nominations prior to the close of this week.
  In addition to these circuit nominations, we have three district 
judges that are available on the Executive Calendar. I will be talking 
to the Democratic leader about scheduling these for consideration as 
well.
