  Mr. WATTS of Oklahoma. Mr. Speaker, I was unable to be here yesterday 
due to my daughter's grade school graduation in Oklahoma, and missed 
Recorded Votes No. 126 (Motion to suspend the rules and pass H. Con. 
Res. 56--National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day), and No. 127 (motion to 
suspend the rules and pass H.R. 1885--extending section 245(i) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act).
  Had I been present, I would have voted yea on both of the above 
motions.
