Mr. President, I have an announcement to make. Members of the Senate, we have made progress today. We are going to come in at 9:30 tomorrow. There will be amendments processed until we leave to go to the joint session. We will come back as soon as that is over and continue working on this bill. At 2:30 I will move to reconsider the vote we had earlier today. So we will have a cloture vote at 2:30 tomorrow. Following that, of course, we have to look forward to when we are going to move to the bill of Senator Inouye and Senator Cochran, on which I understand they have done some good work. That will be the next matter we move to. No further votes this evening.
