                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, this morning there will be a period for the 
transaction of morning business for 3 hours. The first hour will be 
equally divided between the majority and minority. The second 60 
minutes will be under the control of the Democratic side of the aisle, 
and the majority will use the final 60 minutes.
  Following this morning business period, the Senate will recess until 
2:15 p.m. for the weekly policy luncheons.
  This afternoon, the Senate will consider the legislative branch 
appropriations bill. The order provides for 1 hour of debate and a vote 
on passage of that legislation. Senators should, therefore, anticipate 
a rollcall vote later today.
  This week the Senate can also expect to consider the Goss nomination, 
once that nomination is available for full Senate consideration. We 
would like to do that as soon as it becomes available. It should be 
available shortly. So hopefully we can address that nomination 
tomorrow.
  As mentioned yesterday, the Senate may also consider legislation 
which extends some of the expiring family tax provisions.
  Finally, we will continue to work on agreements for some of the 
remaining appropriations measures. The Senate will consider those bills 
under short time limitations, if agreements can be reached.
