                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, tomorrow, following morning business, 
the Senate will resume consideration of the highway bill. We will then 
have 60 minutes for debate before the cloture vote on the pending 
substitute. It is my hope that cloture will be invoked so we can move 
closer toward completing our work on this important legislation. 
Following the vote, we will continue working through whatever 
amendments are left. A number of amendments have indeed been filed, and 
Senators who wish to offer amendments should contact the managers at 
once. Senators should expect rollcall votes throughout the day in 
relation to amendments to the bill.
  Again, it is our intention to complete action on this important 
legislation this week. Senators should expect busy days for the 
remainder of the week and are certainly asked to plan accordingly.
