                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, tomorrow, the Senate will resume 
consideration of the Homeland Security appropriations bill. Several 
amendments are currently pending, including the Collins grant formula 
amendment, as well as a second-degree amendment on the same subject 
matter offered by Senator Feinstein. It is my hope that we will be able 
to lock in a time agreement with respect to those amendments tomorrow 
morning. In addition, there is an amendment relating to veterans health 
funding that we hope to dispose of tomorrow.
  Chairman Gregg and Senator Byrd will be here tomorrow to work through 
additional amendments, and Senators who have time to file the 
amendments and wish to offer them should contact the bill managers, 
obviously, as soon as possible. Senators should expect rollcall votes 
throughout the day tomorrow as the Senate continues to make progress on 
this important piece of legislation.
