                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. DOYLE. Madam Speaker, I wish to inform the House that I was 
unavoidably detained by a medical situation and, consequently, missed 
the vote to approve the final version of H.R. 4213, the Unemployment 
Compensation Act Extension of 2010, earlier this afternoon.
  I want to state for the Record that I would have voted in favor of 
the legislation today, as I did on previous occasions when it came 
before the House for a vote. I've been a consistent supporter of 
legislation to extend unemployment insurance benefits to Americans who 
have lost their jobs, and I regret not being here for the vote.
