                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, our intention has been to go to the Omnibus 
deficit reduction bill, but apparently not all the papers are in order 
at this juncture; therefore, we will postpone that for a bit of time, 
although as soon as that paperwork is available I will be coming back 
to the floor in order to proceed to the consideration of the conference 
report, which is going to require a vote. That is for getting the clock 
started.
  But, in the meantime, because we are sitting here with empty time, I 
ask unanimous consent that Senator Kyl be permitted to speak, followed 
by Senator Kerry, in which case my intention is to come back and 
propound the unanimous consent request at that juncture.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The Senator from Arizona.
