  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, on Wednesday, October 18th, I was 
unavoidably detained in my congressional district and was not able to 
vote on H. Res. 631, H. Con. Res. 415, and H.R. 3218. Had I been 
present for rollcall No. 531, rollcall No. 532, and rollcall No. 533, I 
would have voted ``yea'' on all of these.
