                                PROGRAM

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, we are going to come in tomorrow morning, 
and we will vote at approximately 10:30 on whether we are going to 
invoke cloture on the motion to close debate on the Hayes nomination. 
It is a very important nomination for Secretary Salazar. We are going 
to recess from 12:30 to 1:30 for a caucus, where a number of the 
President's people will be giving us information that we and they feel 
is important.
  Tomorrow night, at 6:30, everybody should be reminded there is a 
Senate spouses' dinner--both Democrats and Republicans with their 
spouses. We will have a nice dinner at the Botanic Garden. This is done 
every year following the First Lady's luncheon. It is a good night for 
us to meet in a nonadversarial role. The Botanic Garden at this time of 
year is a remarkably beautiful place.
