                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Thank you very much, Mr. President.
  Following my remarks and those of the Republican leader, the Senate 
will proceed to a period of morning business for up to 60 minutes. 
Senators will be allowed to speak for up to 10 minutes each during that 
period of time, with the times equally divided and controlled between 
the two leaders or their designees. The majority will control the first 
half and the Republicans the second half.
  Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of 
the housing bill, and around 11 or maybe shortly thereafter, we will 
proceed to a series of three votes on the remaining amendments and 
passage of the bill.
  Upon disposition of the housing bill, the Senate will proceed to S. 
2739, the energy lands bill. There are four Coburn amendments in order 
to the bill, and the proponents and opponents have up to 2 hours to 
debate the amendments prior to votes on the amendments and passage of 
the bill, as amended, if amended.
  When the Senate completes the Energy bill, we will turn to executive 
session to consider the nominations of four district court judges and a 
circuit court judge. There will be up to 4 hours for debate prior to 
votes on confirmation of the nominations.
