                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. HOLT. Mr. Speaker, I was absent from the House on July 9 because 
of a personal emergency, a house fire, and was unable to vote. Had I 
been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall votes 285, 286 and 
287.
  Also, Mr. Speaker, I was unable to vote for rollcall vote 311. Had I 
been able to vote, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall No. 311.
