  Mr. RYUN of Kansas. Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, I missed four votes 
in the House of Representatives on October 7, 2003. Had I been in 
attendance I would have made the following votes:
  Passage of H. Con. Res. 274, Commending the National Endowment for 
Democracy. Had I been in attendance, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Vote on the Bishop (NY) Motion to Instruct on H.R. 1, Medicare 
Prescription Drug and Modernization Act of 2003. Had I been in 
attendance, I would have voted ``no.''
  Vote on the Flake Motion to Instruct on H.R. 1, Medicare Prescription 
Drug and Modernization Act of 2003. Had I been in attendance, I would 
have voted ``yea.''
