  Mr. NUSSLE. Mr. Speaker, unfortunately I was detained and was not 
able to cast my vote on Rollcall #195, passage of H. Con. Res. 424, 
Honoring past and current members of the Armed Forces of the United 
States and encouraging Americans to wear red poppies on Memorial Day. 
Had I been present I would have voted ``aye''.
