  Mr. KIND. Madam Speaker, I was unable to have my vote recorded on the 
House floor on Thursday, June 12, 2008, having returned to my district 
to assist my constituents with the severe flooding that recently struck 
Wisconsin. Had I been present, I would have voted in favor of H. Res. 
1257 (Roll No. 405 and No. 406), H. Res. 1265 (Roll No. 407 and No. 
408), H.R. 1553 (Roll No. 409), H.R. 5749 (Roll No. 410 and No. 412), 
and S. 2146 (Roll No. 413). I would have voted against the motion to 
recommit H.R. 5749 (Roll No. 411).
