                                PROGRAM

  Mr. REID. Madam President, tomorrow there will be 1 hour for debate 
prior to a cloture vote on the motion to disagree to the amendments of 
the House with respect to the housing reform bill. Therefore, Senators 
should expect the first vote of the day to begin as early as 10:30 a.m. 
There will be no morning business.
  Today we were unable to reach an agreement to proceed on the Global 
AIDS legislation. We have tried to do that for weeks now. As a result 
of attempting to work something out, I was forced to file cloture to 
proceed to the bill, but I am hopeful we will be able to reach an 
agreement to consider the legislation. I certainly hope that is the 
case. We also hope to be able to complete the housing legislation 
tomorrow, but that is up in the air. We still understand there is a 
Republican Senator objecting to allowing us to finish this legislation.
