                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. ROEMER. Mr. Speaker, I regret that as a result of an important, 
previously scheduled personal commitment, I was not able to be present 
in the House of Representatives to cast two votes on Tuesday, September 
17, 2002. Had I been present in the chamber, I would have voted ``yea 
on rollcall No. 389 on H.R. 4102--The Rollan D. Melton Post Office 
Designation Act, and ``yea'' on rollcall No. 390 on H.R. 5333--The 
Joseph D. Early Post Office Designation Act.
