                            MORNING BUSINESS

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I now tell all Members, I have had a 
conversation with the distinguished Republican leader, and we are going 
to make a decision in the next hour or so as to what we are going to go 
to next. We were planning, of course, to go to this legislation. 
Cloture on the motion to proceed was not invoked. We have a number of 
things we are talking about, and we will make that decision this 
afternoon.
  Mr. President, I now ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to 
a period of morning business, with Senators allowed to speak therein 
for a period not to exceed 10 minutes each.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
