                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. REID. Madam President, on our side we have 40 minutes, with the 
first 15 minutes yielded to the Senator from Connecticut and the second 
15 minutes to the Senator from Vermont, Mr. Jeffords. My counterpart is 
in the Chamber and wishes to speak. The Republicans have the first 
division of time this morning. Thank you for yielding.
  Mr. McCONNELL. How much time remains on this side?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Five minutes eleven seconds on the Republican 
side.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Madam President, I am not certain I can finish in 5 
minutes. I wonder if it would be all right with the other side to have 
10 minutes instead of 5.
  Mr. REID. No objection. That would be yielded on both sides.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Kentucky.
