  Mr. HURT of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I was not present for Roll Call 
vote Number 589 on H.R. 4757, to expand the eligibility for headstones, 
markers, and medallions furnished by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs 
for deceased individuals who were awarded the Medal of Honor and are 
buried in private cemeteries, and for other purposes. Had I been 
present, I would have voted ``yes.'
