                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BRIAN HIGGINS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 30, 2005

  Mr. HIGGINS. Mr. Speaker, on Monday, June 27, 2005 and Tuesday, June 
28, 2005, unavoidable business in my District kept me from casting 
votes on rollcall Nos. 322, 323, 324, 325, 326, 327, and 328.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall Nos. 322, 
323, 324, and ``no'' on rollcall Nos. 325, 326, 327, and 328.
