                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, earlier today I was unable to 
cast votes due to being out of town on important business. And if I had 
been present for roll call votes for the following bills, 134, on 
motion to suspend the rules and pass to designate the United States 
courthouse located at 400 North Miami Avenue in Miami, Florida, as the 
Wilkie D. Ferguson, Jr., United States Courthouse; 135, on motion to 
suspend the rules and pass Surface Transportation Extension Act of 
2004, Part II, I would have voted ``yes'' to all of these bills.
