  Mr. HINOJOSA. Mr. Speaker, I regret that I was unavoidably detained 
in my congressional district attending the funeral of one of my 
constituents, a soldier killed in Iraq. Had I been present, I would 
have voted ``yes'' on rollcall 130. I would have voted ``no'' on 
rollcalls 126, 127, 128, and 129.
