Other conferees were expected to be Democrats Tim Johnson (S.D.), Charles E. Schumer (N.Y.), Tom Harkin (Iowa), Patrick J. Leahy (Vt.) and Jack Reed (R.I.); and Republicans Richard C. Shelby (Ala.), Judd Gregg (N.H.), Bob Corker (Tenn.), Saxby Chambliss (Ga.) and Mike Crapo (Idaho), though the list was not yet finalized.
