cast my floor vote on rollcall Nos. 210, 211, and 212. The votes I 
missed include rollcall vote 210 on the Motion to Suspend the Rules and 
Agree to H. Con. Res. 295, Congratulating and saluting Focus: HOPE on 
its 35th anniversary; rollcall vote 211 on the Motion to Suspend the 
Rules and Agree, as Amended to H. Res. 612, Recognizing the

26, 2004; and rollcall vote 212 on the Motion to Suspend the Rules and 
Agree to H. Con. Res. 417, Honoring the Tuskegee Airmen.
  Had I been present for the votes, I would have voted ``aye'' on 
rollcall votes 210, 211, and 212.
