  Mrs. TORRES of California. Madam Speaker, while on a fact-finding 
mission to South America to conduct oversight of U.S. assistance and 
assess the situation at the Venezuelan border, I was unavoidably 
detained. As a result, I missed roll call votes No. 170 and No. 171. 
Had I been present, I would have voted YEA on Roll Call No. 170, and 
YEA on Roll Call No. 171.
