                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 21, 1999

  Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Speaker, on the afternoon of Monday, July 19, 
1999, I was unavoidably absent from this chamber and therefore missed 
rollcall vote number 310 (H.R. 1477), rollcall vote number 309 (H. Con. 
Res. 121) and rollcall vote number 308 (H.R. 1033). I want the Record 
to show that if I had been able to be present in this chamber when 
these votes were cast, I would have voted ``yea'' on each of them.
