  Mr. BOOZMAN. Mr. Speaker, as a member of the NATO--Parliamentary 
Assembly, I traveled to Quebec, Canada, from Sunday, November 12 to 
November 15, 2006 to participate in the assembly meetings. Due to the 
timing of the meetings and return travel, I was unable to participate 
in votes on Monday and Tuesday, November 13-14. I am requesting my 
absence for this date. I would also like you to note that, should I 
have been present, I would have voted in the following manner:
  ``Aye.'' H.R. 3085--Amending the National Trails System Act (Roll no. 
517).
