                                PROGRAM

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, the cloture vote on the substitute amendment 
to CJS will occur at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. That will be the first vote 
of the day. We are still hopeful and confident Senators Shelby and 
Mikulski can work out a finite list of amendments to be voted on, and 
we will start voting on those Tuesday. I hope we can do that. If not, 
we will have to go forward. We worked all afternoon trying to come up 
with something, but the amendments kept coming. There was a time we had 
to draw the line. The number of amendments we received had nothing to 
do with this legislation, so it was determined to be the time to file 
cloture.
