On the recordOctober 18, 2011
Following any leader remarks, the Senate will be in a period of morning business for 1 hour. The majority will control the first half, the Republicans the second half. Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of H.R. 2112. The Senate will recess from 12:30 until 2:15 today for our weekly caucus meetings. We will work on an agreement with respect to pending amendments to the appropriations bill that is now before the Senate. We will notify Senators when votes are scheduled. I hope we can process some amendments which are now pending. It is my understanding Senator McCain is coming to offer a number of amendments. I look forward to working with Senator McConnell and others to move the process along as quickly as we can. ____________________
