                           ORDER OF BUSINESS

  Mr. McCONNELL. Now, Madam President, some observations about how we 
will conduct the voting that will likely occur later today, for the 
information of all of our colleagues. What we will do is have a 30-
minute rollcall vote. We want to avoid congregating here in the well. I 
would encourage our colleagues to come in and vote and depart the 
Chamber so we don't have gaggles of conversation here on the floor. 
That is particularly important for our staff here in the front of the 
Chamber.
  So I would encourage everyone to take full advantage of the full 30-
minute rollcall vote. Come in and vote and leave, and be aware of the 
social distancing that Dr. Monahan and others have recommended as we 
come over to the Chamber and as we depart. With that, I think we will 
be able to get through the voting that will occur, in all likelihood, 
later today without violating any of the safety precautions that have 
been recommended to us by the Capitol physician and others.
