  Ms. VELAZQUEZ and Mr. LANGEVIN changed their vote from ``yea'' to 
``nay.''
  So the Journal was approved.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
  Stated for:
  Mr. BILIRAKIS. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 28 I was inadvertently 
detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Stated against:
  Mr. CAPUANO. Mr. Speaker, today I was engaged in questions with the 
Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson during 
a hearing of the Budget Committee and was therefore unable to cast a 
vote on rollcall 28. Had I been present, I would have voted in the 
following manner: ``Nay'' on rollcall 28.
