                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, today the Senate will be in a period 
for morning business. The majority leader has stated it is our 
intention, it is our hope to proceed to consideration of S. 2290, the 
asbestos bill, today. Although we do not yet have an agreement on 
proceeding to the bill, we are continuing to work with our Democratic 
colleagues in an effort to move forward with that important 
legislation.
  Although we will be in a period for morning business, Senators will 
be able to come to the floor today to deliver statements on the 
asbestos bill. As the leader announced before we recessed for the 
Easter holiday, there will be no rollcall votes today.

                          ____________________
