                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following leader remarks, there will be a 
period of morning business for 1 hour. During that period of time, 
Senators will be allowed to speak for up to 10 minutes. Republicans 
will control the first 30 minutes, the majority will control the final 
30 minutes.
  Today we expect to resume consideration of the House message to H.R. 
4213, the tax extenders legislation, and I hope we will have rollcall 
votes throughout the day.
  I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The bill clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order for 
the quorum call be rescinded.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
  Mr. REID. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that we change the 
consent agreement that is now before the Senate, that we be in morning 
business until 2 o'clock today; that the first half hour is controlled 
by the Republicans, the second half hour is controlled by the majority. 
After that, if there are enough speakers, we will alternate back and 
forth. Otherwise, people will just come and talk. There will, of 
course, be the 10-minute limitation.
  The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so 
ordered.
