                                PROGRAM

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President and Members of the Senate, tomorrow 
morning the Senate will begin consideration of the nomination of 
Priscilla Owen to be U.S. circuit court judge for the Fifth Circuit. We 
will debate the nomination throughout the day tomorrow. I encourage 
Members who wish to speak on the nomination to come to the Senate 
during tomorrow's session.
  I talked to the Democrat leader about the structure of the debate, 
and he will accommodate Members who desire to make statements. I 
encourage Senators to contact cloakrooms if they would like to speak on 
the nomination. We look forward to the debate on Priscilla Owen, and we 
hope all of the Members will participate.
