                          HON. XAVIER BECERRA

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, November 2, 1995

  Mr. BECERRA. Mr. Speaker, on November 1, 1995, I was unavoidably 
detained during rollcall vote No. 756, the vote on final passage on 
H.R. 1833, the so-called Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 1995.
  As a member of the House Judiciary Committee, I voted against H.R. 
1833 when it was heard in our committee earlier this year. Had I been 
present for yesterday's floor vote, I would have voted ``no.''
