  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I would like to state for the record my 
position on the following votes I missed due to personal reasons.
  On Wednesday, January 7, 2009, and Friday, January 9, 2009, I missed 
rollcall votes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``aye'' on rollcall votes 5, 6, 7 and 10 and ``nay'' on rollcall 
votes 8 and 9.
