                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. CARTER. Mr. Speaker, on February 10, 2005, during rollcall votes 
28, 29, 30 and 31, I had to return to my Congressional district on an 
urgent matter and was unavoidably detained. If I had been present, I 
would have voted ``no'' on rollcall votes 28, 29, 30 and ``yea'' on 
rollcall vote 31, final passage.
