  Mr. BARRETT of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, due to obligations in 
South Carolina, I unfortunately missed recorded votes on the House 
floor on Monday, May 16, 2005.
  I ask that the Record reflect that had I been able to vote that day, 
I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 171 (Motion to Suspend 
the Rules and Pass H.R. 627--Linda White-Epps Post Office), ``yes'' on 
rollcall vote No. 172 (Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass H. Res. 
266--Peace Officers Memorial Day), and ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 173 
(Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass H.R. 2107--National Law 
Enforcement Officers Memorial Maintenance Fund).
