  Mr. SANDERS. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the 
Senate completes its business today, it stand adjourned until 10:30 
a.m. tomorrow, Thursday, September 11; that following the prayer and 
pledge, the Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the morning 
hour be deemed to have expired, the time for the two leaders be 
reserved for their use later in the day, and that there be a period of 
morning business for up to 1 hour, with Senators permitted to speak 
therein for up to 10 minutes each, with the time equally divided and 
controlled between the two leaders or their designees, with the 
Republicans controlling the first half and the majority controlling the 
second half; and that following morning business, the Senate resume 
consideration of S. 3001, the Department of Defense authorizations 
bill. I further ask that there be a moment of silence at 12:30 p.m. to 
honor the victims of the September 11 attacks.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. SANDERS. In addition to the moment of silence tomorrow, at 11:45 
a.m. on the West front steps of the U.S. Capitol, there will be a 
bipartisan, bicameral congressional ceremony to honor those who lost 
their lives and heroically saved others in the attacks of September 11, 
2001.
