  Mr. JOHNSON of Illinois. Madam Speaker, unfortunately last night, 
September 4, 2007, I was unable to cast my votes on H.R. 694, H.R. 
3020, and the Motion to Instruct Conferees on H.R. 2669 and wish the 
record to reflect my intentions had I been able to vote.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 847 on suspending the rules and 
passing H.R. 694, the Minority Serving Institution Digital and Wireless 
Technology Opportunity Act, I would have voted ``aye''.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 848 on suspending the rules and 
passing H.R. 3020, the Microloan Amendments and Modernization Act, I 
would have voted ``aye''.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 849 on the Motion to Instruct 
Conferees on H.R. 2669, the College Cost Reduction Act of 2007, I would 
have voted ``aye''.
