  Mr. TIAHRT. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained and missed 
rollcall vote Nos. 331-333. Rollcall vote No. 331 was on passage of H. 
Con. Res. 312, Expressing the Sense of Congress that States Should More 
Closely Regulate Pawn and Title Loan Transactions; rollcall vote. No. 
332 was on passage of H. Res. 494, Expressing the Sense of the House 
that the Ohio State Motto is Constitutional and Courts Should Uphold 
It; rollcall vote No. 333 was on passage of H.R. 4608, Designating the 
``James H. Quillen United States Courthouse''. Had I been present, I 
would have voted ``yea'' on each of the three suspension bills.
