                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______


                          HON. CASS BALLENGER

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, February 15, 1995
  Mr. BALLENGER. Mr. Speaker, on February 3, 1995, I was absent for 
rollcall vote No. 90. Had I been present, I would have voted ``no'' to 
this substitute amendment that would have allowed a simple majority 
approval vote to override a Presidential line-item veto.
  On February 10, 1995, I was absent for rollcall vote No. 118. Had I 
been present, I would have voted in favor of final passage of H.R. 668, 
the Criminal Alien Deportation Improvements Act.
