Harry Reid said "the only two amendments I am aware of--there could be others; that is why I think it is good we make a call for other amendments--is one Senator Dorgan has indicated he may offer dealing with the Unocal sale and the amendment being contemplated by the Senator from California, Mrs. Boxer. And we have a pending amendment that I understand can be worked out. That is Senator Landrieu's amendment on adoptions. So it appears we should be able to finish this bill today. I see no reason we should not be able to. We will wait until we hear from Senator Dorgan and Senator Boxer. I say to them, through their staffs who are watching, they should come forward and offer their amendments if they are going to offer them. I have a very short statement I would like to make. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Democratic leader is recognized. ___________________
