Mr. President. in just a few moments we will return to the unfinished business on the illegal immigration legislation. There is every prospect that that legislation will be concluded sometime in the afternoon. As Members of this body know. we are operating under the procedures of cloture. which has foreclosed the opportunity for me and for our minority leader. Senator DASCHLE. or others. to raise the issue of the minimum wage. to offer that as an amendment to the underlying legislation. I have indicated that I would offer it at the earliest moment on any other legislation that comes before the Senate. including the possibility we would offer it this afternoon.
