                          LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM

  (Mr. HOYER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. HOYER. Ladies and gentlemen of the House, after consultation with 
the minority, we have agreed that we will take the debate on the 
District of Columbia bill tonight. We will conclude debate, but we will 
roll votes until tomorrow so that we will not have to keep Members 
here. I've discussed this with, as I say, the minority. I've also 
discussed it with the Members of our side. Those who will want to 
participate in the debate, obviously, will remain, but there has been 
agreement that there will be no further votes tonight.
