                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Madam President, following any leader remarks, the Senate 
will proceed to a period of morning business until 10:30 a.m., with 
Senators permitted to speak therein for up to 10 minutes each, with the 
majority controlling the first half and the Republicans controlling the 
second half.
  Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of 
S. 493, the Small Business jobs bill.
  Senators should expect two rollcall votes at about 10:30 this 
morning. Those votes will be in relation to the following amendments: 
Nelson of Nebraska, regarding a sense-of-the-Senate resolution to 
reduce the Senate's budget by 5 percent, and a Snowe-Landrieu-Coburn 
amendment striking the Federal authorization of the National Veterans 
Business Development Program.
  Additional rollcall votes in relation to amendments to the Small 
Business bill are expected during today's session of the Senate.
  At 12 noon, Senator Blumenthal, from Connecticut, will deliver his 
maiden speech and will speak for up to 20 minutes.
  Yesterday, we received a 3-week continuing resolution from the House. 
I hope we will be able to reach an agreement to consider that before 
the end of the week.
