  Mr. BARRETT of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, due to unforeseen 
circumstances, I unfortunately missed recorded votes on the House floor 
on Monday March 29, 2004.
  I ask that the Record reflect that had I not been unavoidably 
detained, I would have voted `` yes'' on rollcall vote No., 94--Motion 
to suspend the rules and agree to the Senate amendments to H.R. 2584; 
and ``yes'' on rollcall vote No. 95--Motion to Suspend the Rules and 
Pass H.R. 3723.
