                                 ______

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 2, 1999

  Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Speaker, on Thursday, September 23, 1999, I was 
unavoidably absent from this chamber and therefore missed rollcall vote 
442. I want the record to show that had I been present in this chamber 
I would have voted ``yea'' on this vote.
  I also missed rollcall vote 456 on Tuesday, September 28, 1999. I 
want the record to show that if I had been able to be present in this 
chamber when this vote was cast, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall 
vote 456.
