                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______


                           HON. NANCY PELOSI

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, January 23, 1995
  Ms. PELOSI. Mr. Speaker, I rise to voice my continued support for S. 
2, the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995, which was 
overwhelmingly passed by the House of Representatives on January 17, 
1995. As the Record indicates, I have supported this legislation twice 
before. I supported passage of the Congressional Accountability Act 
when it was considered by the House in the 103d Congress, on August 10, 
1994, and then again when the House approved the measure on January 5, 
1995. Accordingly, had I not been detained in my district on January 
17, 1995, I would have voted ``yea'' during the vote on S. 2.
