  Ms. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ. Madam Speaker, on October 24, 2007, I was 
unavoidably detained for rollcall votes No. 998, a motion ordering the 
previous question on the Rule providing for consideration of H.R. 505, 
and 999, providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 505) to express 
the policy of the United States regarding the United States 
relationship with Native Hawaiians and to provide a process for the 
recognition by the United States of the Native Hawaiian governing 
entity.
  If present, I would have voted ``aye'' on both measures.
