  Mrs. JONES of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, I missed votes on Tuesday, March 2, 
2004 due to the Ohio Primary. I respectfully request an excused absence 
for this date. Had I been present, the record would reflect that I 
would have voted: ``Yea,'' on Roll 33, H. Res. 526 on the Motion to 
Suspend the Rules and Agree, Expressing the sympathy of the House of 
Representatives for the victims of the devastating earthquake that 
occurred on December 26, 2003, in Bam, Iran, and ``Yea,'' on Roll 32, 
H.R. 3769 on the Motion to Suspend the Rules and Pass, Ben Atchley Post 
Office Building.
