                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. DENNIS MOORE

                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 18, 2001

  Mr. MOORE. Mr. Speaker, because I was en route to attending the 
wedding of my oldest son, Todd, in Hungary, during the late afternoon 
of July 12, 2001, I was unavoidably absent for vote number 228, on H. 
Res. 188, which would have provided for House floor consideration of 
various campaign finance regulatory overhaul proposals. For this 
purpose, I was granted a leave of absence by the Speaker, after 4 p.m. 
on July 12, and for the balance of the week. Had I been present for 
vote number 228, 1 would have voted ``no.''
