                                PROGRAM

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, on Monday the Senate will resume 
consideration of the highway bill. As a reminder, we reached an 
agreement last night that limits the final list of amendments in order 
prior to passage. Those amendments also must be offered no later than 4 
p.m. on Monday afternoon. Senators who have amendments on the list 
should make themselves available to come to the floor Monday afternoon 
in order to get their amendments pending. We will also have at least 
one rollcall vote Monday, beginning at 5:30 p.m. That vote will be in 
relation to an amendment on the highway bill, and it is possible we 
will stack another amendment for a vote to follow the 5:30 vote.

  I do thank the chairman and ranking member, who have been here 
throughout the week working through amendments and moving this 
important legislation forward. Thanks to their efforts, we were able to 
establish a roadmap that will allow us to move to passage of the bill 
on Tuesday of next week.
