Votes 441, 442, 443, and 444 due to a previously scheduled event. Had I 
been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on all four measures. The 
event in question was scheduled some time ago to commemorate the 75th 
anniversary of the General Accounting Office. In my role as chairman of 
the House Committee on Government Reform and Oversight, I was honored 
to be asked to play a key part in the GAO anniversary celebration.
