                                 ENERGY

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, with regard to the Energy bill the 
majority leader was speaking to, we have a pretty good sense on this 
side what important amendments will need to be disposed of. We hope to 
move forward on those amendments early in the process. Provided we are 
given fair treatment on getting up our amendments and voted on, I 
certainly agree with the majority leader this is an important issue, an 
issue that needs to be disposed of in the very near future. We will be 
working with him to get that bill to conclusion at the earliest 
possible time.
  I yield the floor.
