  Mr. SHAYS. Madam Speaker, on September 17, 2007, my flight to 
Washington from New York was delayed and I missed 3 recorded votes.
  I take my voting responsibility very seriously and had I been 
present, I would have voted ``no'' on recorded vote No. 867, ``yes'' on 
recorded vote 868, and ``yes'' on recorded vote 869.
