                            VOTE EXPLANATION

  Mr. REED. Mr. President, I would like the Record to reflect that I 
was necessarily absent for the vote on the Byrd amendment offered to S. 
Con. Res. 118 on Wednesday, March 16, 2005. Had I been present for this 
vote, I would have voted in favor of the amendment.
