  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, on Tuesday, March 20, 2007, I was 
traveling with the President of the United States to attend a meeting 
back in the district and thus missed rollcall votes #160 through 163. 
Had I been present, I would have voted ``Yea'' on rollcall votes 161 
and 162 and ``Nay'' on rollcall votes 160 and 163.
