  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I was absent from votes on the morning of 
September 25 because I was attending meeting with the National Security 
Advisor at the White House.
  I requested a leave of absence from September 30 through October 8 
due to a family illness. Had I been here, I would have voted ``yea'' on 
rollcall votes 520, 524-529, 531-533, and 535-539 and ``nay'' on 
rollcall votes 530 and 534.
