  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following my remarks and those of Senator 
McConnell, we will be in a period for the transaction of morning 
business for up to 1 hour, with the time controlled by the leaders or 
their designees and Senators permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes 
each. The Republicans will control the first half, and the majority 
will control the final half.
  Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of 
the motion to proceed to S. 1315, the veterans' benefits bill. We are 
going to have that vote at noon today.
  Today, the Senate will recess from 12:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m., as we do 
every Tuesday, for our weekly caucus luncheons, and we will also recess 
from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. for the unveiling of former Majority Leader 
Daschle's portrait.
  Tomorrow, the Senate will be in recess from 11 a.m. to 12 noon for a 
Gold Medal ceremony in the Rotunda honoring Dr. DeBakey and from 4 p.m. 
to 5 p.m. tomorrow for a Senators-only briefing by Admiral Mullen, 
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. That will take place in S-407.
