  Mr. UDALL of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, earlier this month because of 
official business in Colorado I was not able to be present for three 
votes.
  Had I been present, I would have voted as follows:
  Rollcall No. 82, H.J. Res. 81--Providing for the appointment of 
Phillip Frost as a citizen regent of the Board of Regents of the 
Smithsonian Institution--I would have voted ``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 83, H. Res. 703--Recognizing the 20th anniversary of the 
Chernobyl nuclear disaster and supporting continued efforts to control 
radiation and mitigate the adverse health consequences related to the 
Chernobyl nuclear power plant--I would have voted ``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 84, H. Res. 744--Expressing support for the Good Friday 
Agreement of 1998 as the blueprint for lasting peace in Northern 
Ireland and support for continued police reform in Northern Ireland as 
a critical element in the peace process--I would have voted ``yes.''
