The Senate stands in adjournment until 10:00am on Tuesday, June 25, 2013.

• Following any Leader remarks, the Senate will be in a period of morning business for one hour with the Majority controlling the first half and the Republicans controlling the final half.
• Following morning business, the Senate will resume consideration of S.744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act.  The Senate will consider the Leahy amendment #1183, as modified, post-cloture.
• During Monday’s session of the Senate, cloture was filed on the committee-reported substitute amendment and S.744.  As a result, the filing deadline for first degree amendments to both the committee-reported substitute and S.744 is 12:00pm on Tuesday.
• All time during adjournment, recess, morning business and Executive Session will count post-cloture on the Leahy amendment #1183, as modified (with the Corker-Hoeven language regarding border security).

Notwithstanding Rule XXII, at 2:15pm today, the Senate will proceed to Executive Session to consider Executive Calendar #180, the nomination of Penny Pritzker, to be Secretary of Commerce. There will be 30 minutes for debate followed by a vote on the confirmation of Penny Pritzker to be Secretary of Commerce. If all time is used, the vote would occur at 2:45pm.

2:45pm The Senate began a roll call vote on confirmation of Executive Calendar #180 the nomination of Penny Pritzker, to be Secretary of Commerce.

Confirmed: 97-1

The Senate has reached an agreement to set up 3 votes for 11:30am tomorrow. Those votes would be in relation to the following items:

–       Leahy motion to waive all applicable Budget points of order;

–       Adoption of Leahy amendment #1183, as modified;

–       Cloture on the committee-reported substitute amendment, as amended.

If cloture is invoked on the committee-reported substitute the time will count as if cloture had been invoked at 1am on Wednesday, June 26^th.

Senator Vitter made a point of order that the bill would violate the Senate pay-go rule. Senator Leahy moved to waive all points of order with respect to the bill and pending amendments.

Senators are still working on a potential agreement to consider amendments to the bill, however, additional votes today seem to be unlikely.

The filing deadline for all 2^nd degree amendments to the committee-reported substitute and S.744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act is 10:30am Wednesday. Germane second degree amendments to the committee-reported substitute amendment and the

underlying bill must be filed at the desk prior to the deadline to be considered in order post-cloture.
