  Mr. GALLEGLY. Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday, September 6, 2005, I was 
unable to vote on the motion to suspend the rules and agree to H. Res. 
360, commemorating the 60th anniversary of V-J Day and the end of World 
War II in the Pacific (rollcall vote 454); and on the motion to suspend 
the rules and pass as amended, S.J. Res. 19, Calling on the President 
to issue a proclamation recognizing the 30th anniversary of the 
Helsinki Final Act (rollcall vote 455). Had I been present, I would 
have voted ``yea'' on both measures.
