                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, today we will begin our session with a 1-
hour period of morning business. Following morning business, the Senate 
will have an hour for debate on the motion to proceed to the highway 
bill. Under the order, after the 60 minutes of debate, the Senate will 
begin a vote on the motion to invoke cloture on the motion to proceed 
to the highway legislation.
  I do expect that cloture will be invoked and that we would be able to 
consider the substance of the bill during today's session. Once we are 
on the bill, Senators can expect amendments. Therefore, additional 
rollcall votes will occur today.
  Today we will also recess from the hour of 12:30 to 2:15 to 
accommodate the weekly policy luncheons.
  In addition to the highway bill, this week we will consider any 
conference reports that become available. We hope both the budget and 
the emergency supplemental conference reports will be ready for floor 
consideration before we conclude our business this week.
  Finally, I would announce we have several district judges who should 
be cleared for Senate action. If votes are necessary on those 
nominations, we will be scheduling those votes periodically throughout 
the week.
  I yield the floor.
