Mr. President, during two votes this morning, I was unavoidably absent and unable to cast my vote. Had I been present, I would have voted as follows: No--The motion to waive the Budget Act with respect to the House message to accompany H.R. 2847, the HIRE Act. No--The motion to concur with the House amendments to H.R. 2847, the HIRE Act. ____________________
