Haley Stevens: “On behalf of the leader, I make this announcement: Tomorrow, following morning business, the Senate will resume…”

On the recordApril 19, 2005
On behalf of the leader, I make this announcement: Tomorrow, following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of the Iraq-Afghanistan supplemental appropriations bill. We have invoked cloture on the bill, and therefore the only amendments that qualify under the cloture rule will be in order to the bill. There are still quite a few germane amendments that are pending, and therefore we will need a number of rollcall votes prior to final passage. It is the leader's hope that we can finish tomorrow, and we can finish if we can show restraint and not require votes on each of these amendments. Senators should expect a late evening tomorrow as we try to finish the bill on Wednesday. ____________________
