On the recordMay 23, 2005
I rise today to explain how I would have voted on May 23, 2005 during rollcall vote No. 200, No. 201, and No. 202 during the first session of the 109th Congress. The first vote was on H.R. 744--the Internet Spyware (I-SPY) Prevention Act of 2005, the second vote was on H.R. 29--Securely Protect Yourself Against Cyber Trespass Act, and the last vote was on H. Con. Res. 149--Recognizing the 57th Anniversary of the independence of the State of Israel. I respectfully request that it be entered into the Congressional Record that if present, I would have voted ``yes'' on the rollcall votes. ____________________
