                         Monday, July 14, 2003

  Mr. PASCRELL. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained and missed 
rollcall vote No. 338, on approval of H. Res 310, providing for the 
consideration of H.R. 2211, the ``Ready to Teach Act.'' Had I been 
present, I would have voted ``nay'' on H. Res 310.
