On the recordApril 14, 2005

Tomorrow, the Senate will resume consideration of the Iraq-Afghanistan supplemental. Although no rollcall votes will occur tomorrow, we hope to make additional progress on the bill. We expect to lock in some of the pending amendments for votes on Monday, and therefore Senators can expect a series of votes to occur Monday evening. It is my intention to complete action on this bill early next week, and Members should not wait until the last minute to offer their amendments. ____________________
