Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick: “flight delays prevented my attendance for legislative business…”

On the recordJune 19, 2006

flight delays prevented my attendance for legislative business scheduled for today, Monday, June 19, 2006. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on H.R. 5540, the Sgt. Jacob Dan Dones Post Office Designation Act (rollcall No. 289); ``yea'' on H.R. 5504, the Larry Winn, Jr. Post Office Building Designation Act (rollcall No. 290); and ``yea'' on H. Res. 826, expressing the sense of Congress that a National Youth Sports Week should be established (rollcall No. 291). ____________________

There needs to be something before we start chipping away, as Congressman LaTourette said earlier; it is sporadic and we don't have a plan.
