  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:
  Mr. STEARNS. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was inadvertently 
detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. COFFMAN of Colorado. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was 
unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. MICA. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was unavoidably 
detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mrs. BIGGERT. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, honoring and 
recognizing the service and achievements of current and former female

[[Page H12381]]

members of the Armed Forces I was absent. Had I been present, I would 
have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. BUYER. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was unavoidably 
detained and therefore did not vote on passage of H. Res. 868, honoring 
and recognizing the service and achievements of current and former 
female members of the Armed Forces. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``yea.''
  Mrs. MYRICK. Mr. Speaker, I was unable to participate in the 
following vote. If I had been present, I would have voted as follows: 
Rollcall vote 858, on motion to suspend the rules and agree--H. Res. 
868, honoring and recognizing the service and achievements of current 
and former female members of the Armed Forces--I would have voted 
``yea.''
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was 
unintentionally late upon return to the House Chamber and consequently 
missed this vote due to a meeting with my constituents who traveled to 
Washington, DC, to voice their opposition of pending health care 
legislation. I most certainly share overwhelming sense of the House in 
honoring and recognizing the service and achievements of current and 
former female members of the Armed Forces. Had I been present, I would 
have voted ``yea.''
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was unavoidably 
detained but as a co-sponsor of the resolution I would have voted 
``yea.''
  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 858, I was 
unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, today I missed a rollcall 
vote. Unfortunately I missed this vote due to a scheduling conflict.
  Had I been present I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall vote No. 
858, On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, H. Res. 868, honoring and 
recognizing the service and achievements of current and former female 
members of the Armed Forces.
