  Mr. JONES of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, on Friday, October 28, 
2005, I had an engagement in North Carolina and missed two rollcall 
votes. I ask that my absence be excused, and that the Congressional 
Record show that had I been present:
  For rollcall No. 555, I would have voted ``no''; and for rollcall No. 
556, I would have voted ``aye.''
