On the recordMay 24, 2006
Our schedule is as soon as we conclude this we turn to the Senator from Texas, Mrs. Hutchison, for 30 minutes equally divided. She will finish at about 2:45. Then we would go to Senator Sessions' point of order under a time agreement of 2 hours, which would be 4:45. But my sense is that there will be some time yielded. It won't go all the way to 4:45. That is the approximate timeframe.
