                           ORDER OF BUSINESS

  Ms. STABENOW. Mr. President, this morning Senator Coburn and I have 
agreed that the majority will take the first 30 minutes, and there will 
be additional agreements from there. We certainly will be going back 
and forth between both sides this morning, since the time is equally 
divided. We will proceed this morning.
  Senator Harkin is here. I am going to yield time first to Senator 
Harkin. Senator Harkin is our leader, of course, on the Health, 
Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. He has been a champion of the 
health insurance reform bill we passed, as well as the new assistance 
for families for college loans and Pell grants.
  He has been a champion for working men and women on so many issues. 
It is not a surprise that he is here today fighting on behalf of 
working men and women who have lost their jobs through no fault of 
their own and are asking that we provide some temporary assistance to 
them.
  I yield 10 minutes to the distinguished Senator from Iowa.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Iowa.
