  Mr. GENE GREEN of Texas. Madam Speaker, I rise today to explain my 
absence from votes cast on October 29, 2007. I was in Houston 
yesterday, tending to a family health care issue, and was unavoidably 
detained.
  On rollcall vote No. 1010, to approve H.R. 3224, had I been present, 
I would have voted ``yea.''
  On rollcall vote No. 1011, to approve H. Res. 537, had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  On rollcall vote No. 1012, to approve H. Res. 747, had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yea.''
