                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, on the evening of June 19, 2006, I was 
unavoidably detained and missed the rollcall votes for the following 
measures: H.R. 5540, the Sergeant Jacob Dan Dones Post Office 
Designation Act, H.R. 5504, the Larry Winn, Jr. Post Office Building 
Designation Act and H. Res. 826, Expressing the sense of the House of 
Representatives that a National Youth Sports Week should be 
established.
  My flight from Cleveland was rerouted to Dulles Airport due to 
thunderstorms in the Washington area. Had I been present for those 
votes I would have voted ``yea'' on H.R. 5540, ``yea'' on H.R. 5504, 
and ``yea'' on H. Res. 826.
