            Unanimous Consent Agreement--Executive Calendar

  I now ask unanimous consent that following the vote on confirmation 
of Executive Calendar No. 1095, the Senate consider Calendar Nos. 800 
and 801; that there be 2 minutes for debate equally divided between the 
two leaders or their designees prior to each vote; that upon the use or 
yielding back of that time, the Senate proceed to vote without 
intervening action or debate on the nominations in the order listed; 
that any rollcall votes following the first in the series be 10 minutes 
in length; that if any nomination is confirmed, the motion to 
reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table with no 
intervening action or debate; that no further motions be in order to 
the nomination; that any statements related to the nomination be 
printed in the Record; that the President be immediately notified of 
the Senate's action and the Senate then resume legislative session.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there objection?
  Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. REID. We expect the nominations to be considered by voice vote.
