                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I regret that I missed four votes on 
November 8th, 2005. Had I been present I would have voted ``no'' on 
tabling the Obey motion to instruct the conferees of H.R. 3010; ``yea'' 
on H. Res. 38 (Expressing support for the accession of Israel to the 
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development); ``yea'' on H. 
Res. 302 (Recognizing and commending the continuing dedication and 
commitment of employers of the members of the National Guard and the 
other reserve components who have been mobilized during the Global War 
on Terrorism and in defense of the United States); and ``yea'' on H.R. 
3770 (Grant W. Green Post Office Building Designation Act).
