  Mr. FORTENBERRY. Madam Speaker, from Tuesday, May 5 through Thursday, 
May 7, 2009, I was provided a leave of absence from the House of 
Representatives due to the hospitalization of my daughter, and thus I 
missed rollcall votes Nos. 231-242. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``aye'' on Nos. 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236, 239, 240, 241, and 
242, and ``nay'' on Nos. 237 and 238.
