                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. FRIST. Mr. President, we are immediately resuming debate today on 
the border security measure that is pending. Yesterday we were only 
able to complete action on one amendment, and we have three additional 
amendments still pending. During today's session we expect to set up 
votes on those amendments so that others may get into a queue for 
consideration.
  With only a week left before our Easter break, it had been my desire 
to have more votes yesterday and today. We were unable to reach any 
agreements to allow that to happen, but today we do need to make 
progress on setting up votes for Monday. We need to put in full nights 
and days next week to complete the bill and, therefore, I am prepared 
to have several votes on Monday to begin to process as many amendments 
as possible. I encourage Senators to come to the floor today and Monday 
and use this time for any statements they may have on the border 
security issue.
