  Ms. JACKSON-LEE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, on November 1, I was away from 
the House on personal business. Accordingly, I was unable to cast 
certain rollcall votes. If I were present, I would have voted the 
following:
  ``Yes'' on rollcall vote 586 on approving the Journal; ``yes'' on 
rollcall vote 587, H.J. Res. 122; ``no'' on rollcall vote 588; ``yes'' 
on rollcall vote 589; I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote 590, 
H.R. 4577, a motion to instruct conferees; and I would have voted 
``yes'' on rollcall vote 591, H.R. 4577.
  Additionally, Mr. Speaker, on October 19, I was away from the House 
on a personal matter, and I was unable to cast a rollcall vote. 
However, if I were present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall vote 
540, H.R. 4541, the motion to pass the Commodity Futures Modernization 
Act.
