  Mr. POMBO. Mr. Speaker, on July 11, 2005, I missed two recorded 
votes. I take my responsibility to vote very seriously. Had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yea'' on H. Con. Res. 168, a resolution 
condemning the Democratic People's Republic of Korea for the abductions 
and continued captivity of citizens of the Republic of Korea and Japan 
as acts of terrorism and gross violations of human rights, rollcall No. 
363; and ``yea'' on H. Res. 333, a resolution supporting the goals and 
ideals of a ``National Weekend of Prayer and Reflection for Darfur, 
Sudan'', rollcall No. 364.
