                         Tuesday, April 5, 2005

  Mr. KNOLLENBERG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the loss of 
Mrs. Terri Schiavo.
  On March 21, 2005, S. 686 passed the House of Representatives by a 
vote of 203-58. This was rollcall vote number 90. Unfortunately, I was 
out of the country on official Congressional business and unable to 
return for this emergency session. However, had I been present I would 
have voted in support of this legislation.
