 Mrs. MURRAY. Mr. President, due to an emergency last week, I 
was necessarily absent late Thursday afternoon, January 27 and Friday, 
January 28, 1994.
  During my absence, I missed several rollcall votes. For the record, I 
would like to state that had I been here I would have cast the 
following votes:
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote No.

sense of the Senate to lift the arms embargo on the Government of 
Bosnia if requested by the Bosnian Government; and to provide United 
States military aid if requested.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 
9, on agreeing to amendment No. 1280, the McConnell/Byrd amendment 
expressing the sense of the Senate that new members in NATO's 
Partnership for Peace should become full members of NATO if conditions 
are met.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 
10, on agreeing to amendment No. 1278, the Helms amendment forbidding 
ratification of a treaty that calls for U.S. participation in an 
International Criminal Court unless American citizens are guaranteed 
their rights under the first and fourth amendments of the U.S. 
Constitution.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 
11, on agreeing to table amendment No. 1287, the Spector amendment 
requiring collateral on United States loans to Russia and other nations 
of the NIS.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote on 
No. 12, on agreeing to amendment No. 1286, the Brown amendment 
prohibiting the sale of defense articles and services to nations that 
participate in the tertiary and secondary Arab boycott of 
Israel.
