                           ORDER OF PROCEDURE

  Mr. HATCH. Madam President, I have agreed to delay my 20 minutes in 
favor of the distinguished Senator from Michigan having 3 or 4 minutes. 
I ask unanimous consent that I be given the floor after that.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The Senator from Michigan.
  Ms. STABENOW. First, Madam President, I thank my friend from Utah for 
his graciousness. It is a pleasure to serve with him on the Finance 
Committee.
  (The remarks of Ms. Stabenow pertaining to the introduction of S. 
1776 are printed in today's Record under ``Statements on Introduced 
Bills and Joint Resolutions.'')
  Ms. STABENOW. Madam President, I appreciate very much my friend from 
Utah allowing me to step in for a moment. I will be happy to talk more 
about this at a later point, but it is important to get this introduced 
this evening so it can become a part of the debate.
