  Mr. BISHOP of New York. Madam Speaker, I was speaking at the U.S. 
Navy Memorial ceremony in honor of my constituent, Lt. Michael Murphy, 
who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor this week and I was not 
present in the House chamber to vote on rollcall 994.
  I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall 994 had I been present.
