                              of nebraska

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 6, 1997

  Mr. CHRISTENSEN. Mr. Speaker, last Thursday I was unavoidably 
detained and missed rollcall vote No. 102, a Jackson amendment to H.R. 
2. Had I been present, I would have voted ``no,'' and I would like the 
record to show that I would have voted against the amendment.
