  Ms. KILPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, due to the shutdown of the National Air 
Space System, I am unable to return to Washington; therefore I 
respectfully request a leave of absence from business for Wednesday, 
September 12. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on H.J. 
Res. 61, the resolution condemning terrorist attacks launched against 
the United States on September 11, 2001, Rollcall No. 338.
