                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. THOMPSON of California. Mr. Speaker, due to a family emergency I 
was not present to vote on rollcall votes 136, 137, and 138, which were 
held today on H.R. 4181.
  Had I been present, I would have voted: ``Yes'' on the Rangel 
Substitute (rollcall vote 136); ``yes'' on the Motion to Recommit 
(rollcall vote 137); ``no'' on Final Passage (rollcall vote 138).
