Madam President, I propose a unanimous consent agreement that would recognize myself for 5 minutes, Senator Grassley for 5 minutes, Senator Leahy for 5 minutes, and then Senator Snowe and Senator Landrieu for 10 minutes each. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Is there objection? Without objection, it is so ordered.
