On the recordDecember 14, 2005
this morning the Senate will begin a 30- minute period of morning business. When that time has expired, we will begin consideration of the House message to accompany the deficit reduction bill. Last night the agreement we entered allows for up to 7 motions to instruct conferees. Several Members spoke to these motions, debating their motions yesterday. Today we will vote on those, prior to lunch. Order of Procedure Mr. President, I now ask unanimous consent that at 11:45 this morning we proceed to three consecutive votes, first on the Baucus motion to instruct, to be followed by the Carper motion, to be followed by the Harkin motion; provided further that there be 2 minutes equally divided for debate prior to each of the votes; finally, I ask unanimous consent that following the third vote the Senate stand in recess until 2:15 for the policy luncheon to meet. The PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered.
