                                SCHEDULE

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, following my remarks and those of the 
Republican Leader, the Senate will be in a period of morning business 
for up to 1 hour, with Senators permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes 
each and the time controlled between the two leaders or their 
designees. Following morning business, the Senate will proceed to the 
consideration of S. 2663, the bill to reform the Consumer Product 
Safety Commission. The Senate will stand in recess from 12:30 until 
2:15 p.m. to allow for the weekly caucus lunches.
  We are going to do everything within our power to finish the CPSC 
bill this week. Everyone should understand that we have to complete the 
bill this week because next week we have to be on the budget. So I 
would hope everyone understands that if we finish this bill at a decent 
hour on Thursday, we will be out Thursday; otherwise, we are going to 
have to work until we complete it, whatever that takes.

                          ____________________
