  Mr. JOHNSON of Illinois. Madam Speaker, unfortunately yesterday, 
February 11, 2009, I was unable to cast my votes on H. Con. Res. 47, H. 
Res. 154, and H.R. 448.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 60, on passing H. Con. Res. 47, 
Providing for an adjournment or recess of the two Houses, I would have 
voted ``nay.''
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 61, on suspending the rules and 
passing H. Res. 154, Honoring John D. Dingell for holding the record as 
the longest serving member of the House of Representatives, I would 
have voted ``aye.''
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 62, on suspending the rules and 
passing H.R. 448, the Elder Abuse Victims Act, I would have voted 
``aye.''
