  Mr. EMANUEL. Mr. Speaker, due to a family commitment, I was not 
present in the chamber on Friday, June 18 to cast my votes on rollcalls 
267 through 275. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on 
rollcall 267; ``nay'' on rollcall 268; ``yea'' on rollcall 269; ``nay'' 
rollcall 270; ``yea'' on rollcall 271; ``yea'' on rollcall 272; ``yea'' 
on rollcall 273; ``yea'' on rollcall 274; and ``yea'' on rollcall 275.
  Due to unavoidable travel delays, I was not present in the chamber 
earlier today to cast my votes on rollcalls 276 through 278. Had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yea'' on each measure.
