                Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (during the vote). Members are advised there 
are less than 2 minutes remaining on this vote.

                              {time}  1852

  Mr. KINGSTON changed his vote from ``nay'' to ``yea.''
  So (two-thirds being in the affirmative) the rules were suspended and 
the resolution was agreed to.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
  Stated for:
  Ms. SLAUGHTER. Madam Speaker, on rollcall No. 1163, I was unable to 
vote. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. EHLERS. Madam Speaker, on rollcall No. 1163, my airplane flight 
was delayed, so I missed this vote. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``yea.''
  Mr. SHAYS. Madam Speaker, on December 17, 2007, my flight to 
Washington from New York was delayed and I inadvertently missed 1 
recorded vote. I take my voting responsibility very seriously. Had I 
been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on recorded vote No. 1163.
