  Mr. JOHNSON of Illinois. Madam Speaker, unfortunately last night, 
April 27, 2009, I was unable to cast my votes on H. Res. 329, H.R. 
1746, and H. Res. 335 and wish the Record to reflect my intentions had 
I been able to vote.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 207, on suspending the Rules and 
passing H. Res. 295, Recognizing the anniversary of the tragic accident 
of the steamboat ship SS Sultana, I would have voted ``yea.''
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 208, on suspending the Rules and 
passing H.R. 1746, the Pre-Disaster Mitigation Act of 2009, I would 
have voted ``yea.''
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 209, on suspending the Rules and 
passing H. Res. 335, Supporting the goals and ideals of National 
Volunteer Week, I would have voted ``yea.''
