                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following any leader remarks, the Senate 
will resume consideration of the small business jobs bill. Under an 
agreement we reached yesterday, Senator Grassley and Senator Hatch will 
offer their respective motions to suspend the rules. Senators Baucus, 
Grassley, and Hatch will control 15 minutes each, for a total of 45 
minutes. At 10:45 a.m., we will vote on those motions to suspend in the 
order in which they are offered. Following the votes, the time until 12 
noon will be equally divided and controlled between the two leaders or 
their designees. At noon, the Senate will proceed to vote on the motion 
to invoke cloture on H.R. 5297, the small business jobs bill, as 
amended. If cloture is invoked, all postcloture debate time will be 
yielded back and we will proceed to vote on passage of the bill.
  The next item for business will be the Department of Defense 
authorization bill. I wish to reach an agreement to proceed to the 
measure. It appears that will be unlikely and, therefore, I may need to 
file cloture to attempt to end debate on the motion so we can begin the 
amendment process.
