On the recordDecember 1, 2011
relative to the time between that half hour and 2 o'clock, that time, hopefully, would be used. It will be by me for my remarks on this amendment, by the way, because after the 30 minutes, if it is used totally, I would want an opportunity to speak during that time, if necessary in morning business. But there are other amendments we believe can be voice voted during that period of time, I believe my friend from Arizona would agree. So that time will be fruitfully used. But the time now is 2 o'clock for the vote on that first Feinstein amendment. I thank my friend. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Arizona. Mr. McCAIN. Madam President, the vote will be at 2 o'clock. The Senators from New Hampshire and South Carolina wish to speak. I do not know if the chairman wishes to be before or during that or in between. But, also, it does not change the agreement we have, which has not been agreed to but we have agreed we will attempt to have a vote on the second Feinstein amendment at 4 o'clock still. Is that correct? We will attempt to do that?
