Following leader remarks, the Senate will be in morning business for an hour. The Republicans will control the first half and the majority will control the final half. Following morning business, the Senate will begin consideration of H.R. 2832, which is the Generalized System of Preferences Act that is a vehicle for trade adjustment assistance that we are going to be working on. We are going to recess today from 12:30 until 2:15 p.m. for our weekly caucus meetings. At 2:30 p.m. today, Senator Heller will be recognized to deliver his maiden speech in the Senate. We will work through amendments to trade adjustment assistance. I will notify Senators when votes are scheduled. ____________________
