On the recordNovember 4, 2013
I wish to tell the Senate that following my remarks and those of Senator McConnell, the Senate will resume consideration of the motion to proceed to S. 815, the Employee Non- Discrimination Act. At 5 o'clock today the Senate will proceed to executive session to consider the nominations of Gregory Woods to be United States district judge in New York and Debra Brown to be United States district judge in Mississippi. After debate on those two nominations, at 5:30 there will be up to three rollcall votes. I hope one of them will go by voice, but we will have to wait and see. We will have votes on the confirmation of the Woods and Brown nominations and then the vote on the motion to proceed to ENDA, the Employment Non- Discrimination Act. ____________________
