  Mr. BISHOP of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I regret that I was unavoidably 
absent yesterday afternoon, February 13, on very urgent business. Had I 
been present for the five votes which occurred yesterday, I would have 
voted ``aye'' on H. Res. 976, rollcall vote No. 48; I would have voted 
``aye'' on H. Res. 976, rollcall vote No. 49; I would have voted 
``aye'' on H. Res. 976, rollcall vote No. 50; I would have voted 
``aye'' on H. Res. 976, rollcall vote No. 51; and I would have voted 
``no'' on Motion to Adjourn, rollcall vote No. 52.
