                     Wednesday, September 15, 1999

  Mr. CROWLEY. Mr. Speaker, on September 9, 1999, I had to be in New 
York on official business and missed rollcall votes 399, 400, 401, 402, 
403, and 404. I ask that the record reflects that had I been present, I 
would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall vote 399, ``aye'' on rollcall vote 
400, ``nay'' on rollcall vote 401, ``aye'' on rollcall vote 402--the 
motion to recommit the VA/HUD Appropriations, ``nay'' on rollcall vote 
403, the FY 99 VA/HUD Appropriations bill, and ``nay'' on rollcall vote 
404, the DC Appropriations Conference Report.
