                        Wednesday, June 16, 1999

  Mrs. CLAYTON. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 189, the Skelton 
amendment--``prohibiting any funding for combat or peacekeeping 
operations in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia,'' I was absent for 
the above-referenced vote because I was in North Carolina attending the 
funeral services for the father of my District Office Director. Had I 
been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
