                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following the remarks of the two leaders, we 
will proceed to a period of morning business until noon today. Senators 
are allowed to speak for up to 10 minutes each, and the time will be 
equally divided and controlled between the two leaders or their 
designees.
  At noon, the Senate will consider the Amtrak and rail safety 
legislation. The Republican leader will control the time from 12 until 
12:15, and I will control the time from 12:15 to 12:30. At 12:30, we 
will have a vote to concur in the House amendment to the Senate 
amendment to the rail safety legislation.
  There will be a 1:30 Democratic caucus, and we are going to talk, of 
course, about the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act. So I ask 
unanimous consent that the Senate recess from 1:30 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. 
while I conduct that conference.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
