“We have a unanimous-consent agreement limiting the remaining number of amendments, with time agreements worked out. We would appreciate it if the Senators in sequence would be ready to go when the next amendment comes up. We anticipate a long session today. There will be other votes following completion of the immigration bill, including a vote on cloture on the nomination of Brett M. Kavanaugh, U.S. circuit judge for the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. We are now ready to proceed with the Cornyn amendment. I should announce further that it is our intention to stack the votes at the conclusion of the debate on remaining amendments. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Senator from Texas is recognized. Amendment No. 4097”
