                Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Doyle) (during the vote). There is 1 
minute remaining on this vote.

                              {time}  1508

  Mr. KELLER of Florida changed his vote from ``aye'' to ``no.''
  So the motion to refer was agreed to.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
  Stated against:
  Mr. NEUGEBAUER. Mr. Speaker, this afternoon I missed rollcall Vote 
401, a vote on referring H. Res. 1258 to committee.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``no'' on rollcall Vote 401.
  Mr. KING of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I was detained while attempting to 
reach the House floor to cast my vote on rollcall 401 earlier this 
afternoon. Had I been able to reach the floor before the vote was 
closed, I would have voted ``no.''
