  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, very quickly, I understand the Senator from 
Massachusetts will be recognized shortly. I ask him, is he going to be 
speaking on the underlying bill?
  Mr. KENNEDY. I will be speaking about issues that are included in the 
underlying bill.
  Mr. FRIST. I will ask that following the Senator's time we be given a 
like amount of time to comment on whatever subject it would be. Then I 
encourage that we would be able to go straight to the underlying bill. 
We have the managers here, and I know the Senator has a statement he 
wants to make.
  I ask unanimous consent that Senator Kyl follow Senator Kennedy, with 
a similar amount of time to respond on the topic, whatever it may be, 
and we will go straight to the bill. I want to encourage us to stay on 
the underlying bill.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The Senator from Massachusetts is recognized.
