                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader time, there will be a 
period of morning business until noon, with Senators permitted to speak 
for up to 10 minutes each, with the Republicans controlling the first 
half and the majority controlling the second. At 12 noon, the Senate 
will proceed to executive session to consider the following 
nominations: Michael McGinn, of Minnesota, to be U.S. Marshal for the 
District of Minnesota; Ralph E. Martinez, of Florida, to be a member of 
the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission of the United States; and G. 
Steven Agee, of Virginia, to be U.S. circuit judge for the Fourth 
Circuit.
  The time from noon until 12:30 is equally divided and controlled 
between Senator Leahy and Senator Specter. The Senate will recess from 
12:30 until 2:15 p.m. for the weekly caucus luncheons. At 2:15, there 
will be 15 minutes for debate equally divided and controlled between 
Senators Warner and Webb or their designees. At 2:30, the Senate will 
proceed to a rollcall vote on the confirmation of the Agee nomination. 
Upon confirmation of the Agee nomination--and I am confident that will 
take place--the other two nominations will be confirmed by consent.
  Following executive session, we expect to consider the House message 
accompanying H.R. 2642, the 2008 emergency supplemental. As previously 
announced, the time from 11 a.m. until 12 noon tomorrow will be set 
aside for tributes to former President Lyndon B. Johnson on the 
centennial of his birth.
