                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I regret that I missed three votes on 
November 7th, 2005. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on 
H. Con. Res. 260 (Recognizing the 40th anniversary of the Second 
Vatican Council's Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-
Christian Religions, Nostra Aetate, and the continuing need for mutual 
inter-religious respect and dialogue); ``yea'' on H.R. 1973 (Water for 
the Poor Act of 2005); and ``yea'' on H. Res. 444 (Gynecological 
Resolution for Advancement of Ovarian Cancer Education).
