U.S. Postal Service to issue stamps supporting breast cancer research;
  ``Yes'' on Roll Call No. 7, passage of H.R. 3493, the Medical Devices 
Technical Corrections Act;
  ``Yes'' on Roll Call No. 8, the Baldwin substitute to S. 1920, 
regarding the extension of chapter 12 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;
  ``Yes'' on Roll Call No. 9, the motion to recommit S. 1920 with 
instructions;
  ``Yes'' on Roll Call No. 10, final passage of S. 1920, regarding the 
extension of chapter 12 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;
  ``No'' on Roll Call No. 11, motion to instruct conferees on S. 1920, 
regarding the extension of chapter 12 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.
