  Mr. McDERMOTT. Mr. Speaker, I was unable to be in Washington, DC, 
yesterday, and part of today. As a result I missed several votes. Had I 
been able to vote I would have voted in support of H. Res. 487, S. 
1047, H. Res. 594, for the motion to recommit H.R. 3199, and against 
final passage of H.R. 3199. I would have voted against H.R. 3010.
