                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. ISAKSON. Mr. President, today we resume consideration of the 
border security bill. After an hour of debate equally divided and the 
leaders' remarks, we will proceed to a cloture vote on the motion to 
commit, which is the Hagel-Martinez language. This will occur at 
approximately 9:45 this morning. This will be the first of several 
votes we will have today. If cloture is not invoked, we will 
immediately proceed to the second cloture vote on the underlying bill. 
If cloture is not invoked on the underlying bill, we will turn to the 
cloture motions that were filed on the defense nominations. We 
confirmed two nominations last night, and we hope we will be able to 
reach agreement on the remaining few. Senators are alerted that we will 
have a busy morning and should stay close to the Chamber. I thank my 
colleagues for their cooperation before we recess for the Easter break.
