  Mr. GUTIERREZ. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably absent from this 
chamber when roll call votes number 257, 258, and 259 were cast. I want 
the record to show that had I been present in this chamber at the time 
these votes were cast, I would have voted ``yes'' on roll call vote 
number 257, ``yes'' on roll call vote 258, ``yes'' on roll call vote 
259.
