Is there a really good schedule for upcoming activities in the U.S. Senate available online?

Senate.gov just doesn't seem to have a schedule for the upcoming weeks. There's a bit of one, a "tentative" 2007 Legislation schedule, but it only says when the Senate is in session, not which bills are going to be introduced, considered, and voted on on which days.

Is there a schedule available that actually states what business the Senate will be taking up on what days? I only need one that covers the next few months. Thanks, guys.

While I didn't find anything on votes, here's a link which informs about when committees will be meeting and discussing business.

Further digging around produced this vote, it may have the information on voting that you were looking for.

Response by poster: Thanks - let me add that I'm specifically looking for when Edward Kennedy is going to introduce the student loan bill, when it'll be considered, and, if possible, when it'll be voted on.

that is a good place for info as well, but then again I am biased as I help run that site.

You can subscribe to the RSS feed for that particular bill (H.R. 5) here. That will let you know when it gets introduced in the Senate and further developments.
