                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. GILMAN. Mr. Speaker, earlier today, I was unavoidably delayed. 
Accordingly, I was unable to vote on rollcall Nos. 122, 123, and 124. 
If I had been present I would have voted ``yea'' on all. I ask 
unanimous consent to have my statement placed in the Record at the 
appropriate point.
