                            VOTE EXPLANATION

 Mr. MENENDEZ. Madam President, due to an official event in New 
Jersey, I was necessarily absent for rollcall votes 186 and 187. Had I 
been present, on rollcall No. 186, passage of S. 454, the Weapon 
Systems Acquisition Reform Act of 2009, I would have voted yea; 
rollcall No. 187, the confirmation of R. Gil Kerlikowske to be Director 
of National Drug Control Policy, I would have voted yea.
