“Following leader remarks, the Senate will be in a period of morning business with the majority controlling the first 30 minutes and the Republicans the final 30 minutes. Yesterday, the Finance Committee reported the nomination of Jacob Lew to be Treasury Secretary. We hope to reach an agreement to move this nomination forward today. In addition, I filed cloture on the motion to proceed to the American Family Economic Protection Act. If no further consent is reached, that cloture vote will be tomorrow morning. I will now yield to my friend from Idaho. Senator Crapo. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Idaho. ____________________”
