                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______


                          HON. JERROLD NADLER

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 19, 1994

  Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained in my district on 
official business and was granted a leave of absence.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on the Gilman motion 
to instruct House conferees on H.R. 2333 [Roll No. 113] to insist upon 
the provision contained in section 132(f) of the House bill relating to 
the continuation of the office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism 
at the Department of State. I had offered this language with my 
colleague from New York [Mr. Gilman] when the House considered its 
version of the bill.
  I would also have voted ``yea'' on House Concurrent Resolution 222 
[Roll No. 114] to authorize the placement of a bust of Raoul Wallenberg 
in the Capitol. As a member of the Holocaust Memorial Council, and the 
congressional representative of the largest number of holocaust 
survivors in the country, I am pleased to join this unanimous House in 
supporting the placement of a bust to honor the distinguished work of 
that courageous diplomat.
