                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. TODD TIAHRT

                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 24, 2006

  Mr. TIAHRT. Mr. Speaker, on July 13, I was unavoidably detained and 
missed rollcall vote No. 374.
  Rollcall vote No. 374 was on final passage of H.R. 9, the Fannie Lou 
Hamer, Rosa Parks, and Coretta Scott King Voting Rights Act 
Reauthorization and Amendments Act. Had I been present, I would have 
voted, ``yea.''
  This is an important piece of legislation that I hope to see pass 
through the Senate, signed by the President and enacted.
