  Mr. RYUN of Kansas. Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, I missed three votes 
in the House of Representatives on July 21, 2003. Had I been in 
attendance I would have made the following votes:
  The Van Hollen Motion to Instruct Conferees on H.R. 1308, All-
American Tax Relief Act of 2003. Had I been in attendance, I would have 
voted ``no.''
  Passage of H.R. 1516, the National Cemetery Expansion Act of 2003. 
Had I been in attendance, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Passage of H. Con. Res. 212, Recognizing and supporting the goals and 
ideals of the Year of the Korean War Veteran. Had I been in attendance, 
I would have voted ``yea.''
