House due to a family illness and therefore missed rollcall votes 1034 
through 1036.
  Had I been present for rollcall 1034, H.R. 3222, on closing portions 
of the conference for a measure making appropriations for the 
Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008, 
and for other purposes, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Had I been present for rollcall 1035, H.R. 513, on a motion to 
suspend the rules and pass, as amended the National Heroes Credit 
Protection Act, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Had I been present for rollcall 1036, H. Res. 744, on a motion to 
suspend the rules and agree to a measure recognizing the contributions 
of Native American veterans and calling upon the President to issue a 
proclamation urging the people of the United States to observe a day in 
honor of Native American veterans, I would have voted ``yea.''
