                                PROGRAM

  Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, tomorrow, following morning business, the 
Senate will begin consideration of the service medals legislation. 
Under the previous order, there will be a short period of debate prior 
to a vote on passage. If all time is used, that vote will occur at 
approximately 11:15 a.m. The vote on the service medals bill will be 
the first vote of the day.
  The Senate will then resume consideration of the Department of 
Defense authorization bill. We are prepared to consider amendments and 
I encourage Senators to notify us of their intent to offer amendments 
so we can begin to schedule for their consideration. It is the leader's 
intention to complete action on this bill by the end of the week.
  Following the party luncheons, the Senate is scheduled to proceed to 
a cloture vote on the nomination of Marcia Cooke to be a district judge 
for the Southern District of Florida. Discussions on the state of 
judicial nominations are ongoing, and it is possible we may not require 
this cloture vote.
