  Mr. GOSS. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained on my return from 
my district in Southwest Florida, as a result, I was not able to be 
present for rollcall votes 436 and 437. Had I been present, I would 
have voted yes for rollcall vote 436 and yes for rollcall vote 437. I 
request that this statement appear at the appropriate place in the 
Record.
