business of Monday, June 2, 2003 due to a delay in my flight from

No. 227, for H. Res. 159: expressing profound sorrow on the occasion of 
the death of Irma Rangel; ``yea'' on rollcall No. 228, for H. Res. 195: 
congratulating Sammy Sosa of the Chicago Cubs for hitting 500 major 
league home runs; and ``yea'' on rollcall No. 229, for H.R. 1465: to 
designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 
4832 East Highway 27 in Iron Station, North Carolina, as the ``General 
Charles Gabriel Post Office.''
