                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. DURBIN. Mr. President, it is my understanding we were speaking in 
30-minute segments and that the Senator from Kansas was allowed a 
little extra time to finish his remarks, which by my reckoning was 
about an additional 10 minutes. I want to clarify, and if a unanimous 
consent request is necessary, I will make that request, that the 
Senator from North Dakota be allowed to speak until 10 after the hour; 
and then, at 4:30, the next Democratic speaker would be recognized. So 
I think we would be back on the schedule that was spoken to earlier.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. DURBIN. Mr. President, thank you very much, and if the Senator 
from North Dakota will yield for a few minutes.
  Mr. DORGAN. I yield to Senator Durbin.
  Mr. DURBIN. I thank my colleague for yielding.
