  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Mr. Speaker, from January 28, 2015 through 
February 5, 2015, I missed recorded votes #49-#68. I was unable to 
vote, as I contracted the flu and was considered contagious at the 
time. My doctor advised me to remain home until my fever subsided. 
Despite receiving the flu shot, I was one of the many Americans to come 
down with the flu this year.
