Mr. President, following leader remarks, the Senate will turn to a period of morning business until 2 p.m. this afternoon. Senators during this time will be allowed to speak for up to 10 minutes each. The majority will control the first 30 minutes. The Republicans will control the next 30 minutes. At 2 p.m., the Senate will resume consideration of H.R. 4213, the tax extenders legislation. Under an agreement reached last night, all postcloture debate time will be yielded back and the substitute amendment will be agreed to. The Senate will then proceed to a cloture vote on the underlying bill. If cloture is invoked, all postcloture debate time will be yielded back and the Senate will then proceed to vote on passage of the bill, as amended. We will continue to work on an agreement to begin consideration of the Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization bill today. ____________________
