                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Ms. KILPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, due to official leave of absence for 
business in the 13th Congressional District of Michigan, I was 
unfortunately unable to vote on several resolutions on final passage. 
Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on final passage of H.R. 
2276, the Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation Tax Act, and ``aye'' 
on final passage of H.R. 3222, Defense Appropriations for FY 2008.
