                       Tuesday, December 15, 2009

  Mr. GRAYSON. Madam Speaker, on rollcall Nos. 969 and 970, I would 
have voted ``yes.'' I was absent because I joined a congressional 
delegation inspecting military facilities in Iraq, which did not return 
until the following morning. Hence, had I been present, I would have 
voted ``yea.''
