                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, today we will begin with a 1-hour period 
for morning business. We will finish the emergency supplemental 
appropriations bill during today's session. The order from last night 
provides for up to three votes, including final passage, and those 
votes will be stacked for a time certain late this afternoon. We also 
have an agreement to consider the nomination of John Negroponte to be 
Director of National Intelligence. We will debate that nomination today 
and stack that vote to occur with the remaining votes on the emergency 
supplemental bill.
  I thank Chairman Cochran and Senator Byrd for their hard work on the 
appropriations measure. That bill will go to conference next week, and 
we hope that we can have a conference report available in a reasonable 
period of time.
  Again, we will alert Members when we have locked in the exact time of 
the stacked votes later today.
  I yield the floor.
