On the recordJune 30, 2005

Members have been asking about the schedule for tonight. We are proceeding to the Energy and Water appropriations bill. The chairman and ranking member will begin shortly. I do not believe we have many amendments to the bill. We will finish the bill tonight. I know the Senator from California will have an amendment, and it will require some debate and a vote. We can begin that amendment--or I will leave it to the chair and ranking member at this time. But the plans will be to have further rollcall votes, and we will complete the bill tonight. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nevada is recognized.
