  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, on Friday, October 7, 2005, I was 
unavoidably detained and thus missed rollcall vote No. 520. Had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall vote No. 520, H. Con. 
Res. 248, honoring the life and work of Simon Wiesenthal and 
reaffirming the commitment of Congress to the fight against anti-
Semitism and intolerance in all forms, in all forums, and in all 
nations.
