  Mr. MERKLEY. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that when the 
Senate completes its business today, it adjourn until 10 a.m. tomorrow, 
Tuesday, September 15; that following the prayer and pledge, the 
Journal of proceedings be approved to date, the morning hour be deemed 
expired, the time for the two leaders be reserved for their use later 
in the day, and there then be a period of morning business for 1 hour, 
with the time equally divided and controlled between the two leaders or 
their designees, with the majority controlling the first half and the 
Republicans controlling the second half, with Senators permitted to 
speak for up to 10 minutes each; that following morning business, the 
Senate resume consideration of Calendar No. 153, H.R. 3288, 
Transportation HUD appropriations; and finally, I ask the Senate recess

  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
