                    DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION AMENDMENTS

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, let me say briefly, the majority leader 
has it entirely right, we are in the process of discussing a consent 
agreement under which the Webb amendment would be voted upon and the 
alternative, which will be offered by Senator Lindsey Graham, who will 
be over to speak shortly.
  Hopefully, we will be able to work that out and begin to make 
progress on the bill.
  I yield the floor.
