  Mr. BISHOP of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, on November 28, 2023, I attended 
a memorial service in honor of former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, so I 
was unable to vote on the House Floor. Had I been present, I would have 
voted YEA on Roll Call No. 676, H. Res. 793--Calling on Hamas to 
immediately release hostages taken during the October 2023 attack on 
Israel, and YEA on Roll Call No. 677, H. Res. 793--Reaffirming the 
State of Israel's right to exist.
