On the recordNovember 3, 2011
following leader remarks, the Senate will debate the motions to proceed to S. 1769 and S. 1786. One is a Democratic-sponsored infrastructure bill, and the other is a Republican-sponsored bill. The time until 3 p.m. will be equally divided and controlled between the two leaders or their designees. At about 3 p.m., there will be up to two rollcall votes. The first vote will be on a motion to proceed to S. 1769, the Rebuild America Jobs Act. If that is not successful, there will be a second vote on the motion to proceed to S. 1786. Both motions will require 60 votes. We also expect to vote on a number of judicial nominations today. ____________________
