  Mr. MARCHANT. Madam Speaker, due to recent major surgery, I have been 
unable to travel to Washington, DC and would like the record to reflect 
my stated positions on three major votes that I missed due to my 
recovery from surgery.
  Rollcall vote 625 of December 8, 2010 on HR 5281 that contained the 
DREAM Act, I would have voted ``nay.''
  Rollcall vote 638 of December 15, 2010 on the Don't Ask, Don't Tell 
Repeal Act of 2010, I would have voted ``nay.''
  Rollcall vote 647 of December 17, 2010 on the Tax Compromise, I would 
have voted ``nay.''
  I look forward to returning to Washington, DC next month when cleared 
to travel by my doctor.
