  Mr. ADAM SMITH of Washington. Mr. Speaker, on June 22 this House 
voted to approve H. Res. 452, expressing the sense of the House that 
the Postal Service should not raise its rates. My vote was mistakenly 
recorded as ``No.'' I would like to express my support for the H. Res. 
452 and emphasize that I do not believe the Postal Service should raise 
its rates at this time.
