rollcall vote No. 179 on agreeing to H. Res. 1083, providing for 
consideration of the bill H.R. 2537, Beach Protection Act of 2008; 
``yea'' on rollcall vote No. 180 on the motion to suspend the rules and 
agree to H. Res. 1038, recognizing the fifth anniversary of the

for their extraordinary efforts and contributions to protect and secure 
our Nation; and ``yea'' on rollcall vote No. 181 on agreeing to H. Res. 
1092, relating to the consideration of the bill H.R. 5274 to implement
