May 12:
The Senate will convene at 2:00 p.m. and will be in a period of morning business with Senators
permitted to speak for up to 10 minutes each, with the time until 5:30 p.m. equally divided and controlled
between the two Leaders or their designees. There will be no roll call votes on Monday. Senators should be prepared to vote as early as 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday in relation to the following items: the
McConnell amendment No. 4720 (energy) with a 60-vote threshold; the Reid amendment (energy) with a
60-vote threshold; passage of the flood insurance legislation (either S. 2284 or H.R. 3121); and cloture on
the motion to proceed to H.R. 980 (collective bargaining). If cloture on the motion to proceed is invoked, all post-cloture time will be yielded back and the motion to proceed will be agreed to.
A world of opportunity awaits anservice academy appointee. From these institutions come our nation's pilots, physicists, navigators, engineers and astonauts. And from these minds will come the leadership that will carry us into the next century.
Every one of these academies offers an excellent education and leadership program. I hope that you will take a moment to familiarize yourself with the many opportunities the academies have to offer. If you should have any questions, I hope that you will feel free to contact me.
