                         Tuesday, June 15, 1999

  Mr. WALDEN. Mr. Speaker, I regret that I was not present for 
yesterday's recorded vote on the passage of H.R. 1400, the Bond Price 
Competition Improvement Act of 1999, due to unavoidable weather delays 
in air travel and traffic congestion returning from the airport. Had I 
been present for this rollcall vote, I would have voted ``yea.'' I 
request that the Record reflect this position.
