  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Madam Speaker, I was unable to cast votes on 
the following legislative measures on July 26, 2010. My congressional 
district suffered massive flooding, and I needed to remain in Chicago 
to focus on the recovery. If I had been present for rollcall votes, I 
would have voted ``yea'' on each of the following:
  Roll 467, July 26, 2010: On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, as 
Amended: H.R. 1320, To amend the Federal Advisory Committee Act to 
increase the transparency and accountability of Federal advisory 
committees, and for other purposes.
  Roll 468, July 26, 2010: On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Agree, as 
Amended: H. Res. 1504, Recognizing and honoring the 20th anniversary of 
the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.
  Roll 469, July 26, 2010: On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, as 
Amended: H.R. 3101, Twenty-First Century Communications and Video 
Accessibility Act.
