  Mr. MASCARA. Mr. Speaker, on July 16, 2002, I was unavoidably absent 
for personal reasons and missed rollcall votes numbered 299 through 
308. For the record, had I been present I would have voted ``yea'' on 
rollcall votes 299, 300, 301, 302, 304, 306, and 308, and I would have 
voted ``nay'' on rollcall votes 303, 305, and 307.
