                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, today we have a period of morning 
business for up to 90 minutes. The first hour of that time is divided 
with the majority controlling the first 30 minutes, and the minority in 
control of the second 30 minutes.
  At about 11 o'clock, the Senate will begin consideration of S. 384, 
the Nazi War Crimes Working Group extension bill. Senator DeWine is the 
primary sponsor of that legislation, and he will be here to begin the 
debate.
  Last night, we reached an agreement for 90 minutes of debate on the 
bill to accommodate several Senators who want to speak on the 
underlying legislation. It does not appear that a rollcall vote will be 
necessary on passage of S. 384, and we will notify everyone if someone 
requests a vote.
  We are also working on agreements for the genetic nondiscrimination 
bill and the high-risk pooling bill.
  This week, we also hope to consider the committee funding resolution, 
as well as any additional nominations that become available.
  Finally, I remind all of our colleagues of the traditional reading of 
George Washington's Farewell Address that will occur this Friday. The 
junior Senator from North Carolina, Mr. Richard Burr, has agreed to 
deliver that address, and we thank him in advance for his contribution 
to this longstanding Senate tradition.
  Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the final 30 minutes of 
the allotted morning business time be under the control of Senators 
Cornyn and Leahy, or their designees.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll.
  The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. COLEMAN. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be dispensed with.
  The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
