Mr. President, following leader remarks--and today we will hear from Senator McConnell first--the Senate will resume the motion to proceed to the comprehensive immigration legislation. The time until 12:30 will be equally divided and controlled between the proponents and opponents of this legislation. The Senate will recess from 12:30 until 2:15 to allow for the weekly caucus meetings. At 2:15 there will be a cloture vote to proceed to the immigration legislation. If cloture is invoked, the time until 4 p.m. will be equally divided, and at 4 p.m. there will be a vote on the adoption of the motion to proceed so we can begin debate on that legislation. ____________________
