On the recordMarch 18, 2010
We will be voting at 4:15 on two amendments. Following that, we have 17 amendments en bloc that have been agreed to by both sides. We can't get them here and have them voted on because of objection, but by and large, they have been agreed on by both sides. Following that, the issue of the slot rules and perimeter--if we can find a way to resolve that, we should be able to finish the bill this afternoon. If not, if there are some who insist they intend to offer amendments, that will be problematic and we probably will not be able to finish this bill. This bill is about aviation safety, modernization, a passenger bill of rights. I hope that we will be able to have some cooperation by Senators--this is the fifth day we have been on the floor with this bill--to get this done today. I hope that will be the case. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Oklahoma. Amendment No. 3549
