On the recordJanuary 27, 2011
Mr. President, following leader remarks, if any, the Senate will begin en bloc consideration of several resolutions to change the Senate rules. There will be up to 8 hours of debate prior to a series of stacked rollcall votes in relation to the resolutions. The Senate will recess from 12:30 until 2:15 to allow for caucuses. It is my understanding that both the Democrats and Republicans will be holding meetings today during that hour. If all time is used, the series of votes will begin around 8 p.m. However, we expect time to be yielded back so that the votes can begin earlier. Senators will be notified if and when any time is yielded back and when the votes are expected to begin. ____________________
