                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN SULLIVAN

                              of oklahoma

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 10, 2007

  Mr. SULLIVAN. Madam Speaker, I rise to state for the record that I 
missed rollcall vote No. 534 to H.R. 2764 taken on June 21, 2007. Had I 
been present for this vote, I would have voted ``aye.''
  I am opposed to overturning the longstanding Mexico City policy which 
prohibits funding for foreign non-governmental organizations that 
perform or promote abortions as a method of family planning. I stand in 
strong support of H. Amdt. 368, which would remove the language 
overturning the Mexico City policy.
