  Mr. STRICKLAND. Mr. Speaker, on March 11, 1999, due to a prior 
personal commitment, I was unable to cast my vote on H. Con. Res. 42. 
Had this scheduling conflict not prevented me from being in the House 
on the evening of March 11, I would have voted the following: ``Yea''--
H. Con. Res. 42 [Roll No. 49]--on agreeing to the resolution--
peacekeeping operations in Kosovo. ``Nay''--H. Con. Res. 42 [Roll No. 
48]--on agreeing to the amendment--Fowler of Florida to Gejdenson of 
Connecticut
