                          Friday, May 14, 1999

  Mr. QUINN. Mr. Speaker, I was honored by the American Red Cross in 
Buffalo, New York, and therefore was unable to cast my vote on the 
motion to instruct conferees (rollcall No. 130) regarding H.R. 1141, a 
bill making emergency supplementary appropriations for the fiscal year 
ending September 30, 1999. Had I been present, I would have voted 
``yea'' in support of this motion.
