Following any Leader remarks, the Senate will resume consideration of the motion to proceed to S.1769, the Rebuild America Jobs Act. The Republican Leader or his designee will be recognized to make a motion to proceed to S.1786, the Long-Term Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2011 (Hatch).
The motions to proceed to S.1769 and S.1786 will be debated concurrently with the time until 3:00pm equally divided and controlled between the two Leaders or their designees.
At 3:00pm, the Senate will conduct up to 2 roll call votes. The first vote will be on the motion to proceed to S.1769 with a 60-vote threshold. If that is unsuccessful, the Senate will proceed to a 2nd vote on the motion to proceed to S.1786 with a 60-vote threshold.
We also expect to vote on a couple of judicial nominations during Thursday's session.
