William H. Frist: “tomorrow following morning business, the Senate will resume…”

On the recordApril 26, 2005

tomorrow following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of the highway bill. We will continue the amending process tomorrow. The chairman and ranking member will be here to work through amendments that are offered. Rollcall votes are expected throughout the day in relation to the amendments. I also remind my colleagues that we have several other important matters to address before adjourning for next week's recess. We hope to receive conference reports to both the budget resolution and supplemental appropriations bill. In addition, several nominations are available for floor consideration, and we expect to move forward with those this week as well. Again, we have a lot of work to do this week. Senators should expect busy days with rollcall votes throughout the week. ____________________
