  Mr. BECERRA. Mr. Speaker, on Monday, April 7, 2003, I was unable to 
cast my floor vote on rollcall Nos. 109, 110, and 111. The votes I 
missed include rollcall vote 109 on Suspending the Rules and Passing 
H.R. 1055, the Dr. Roswell N. Beck Post Office Building Designation 
Act; rollcall vote 110 on Suspending the Rules and Agreeing to H. Res. 
127, as Amended, Expressing the Sense of Congress that a month should 
be designated as ``Financial Literacy for Youth Month,'' and rollcall 
vote 111 on Suspending the Rules and Passing, as Amended H.R. 1368, the 
Norman Shumway Post Office Building Designation Act.
  Had I been present for the votes, I would have voted ``aye'' on 
rollcall votes 109, 110, and 111.
