Res. 68, making continuing appropriations for fiscal year 2006 (rollcall No. 507); and ``aye'' on H. Con. Res. 178, recognizing the need to pursue research into the causes, a treatment, and an eventual cure for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, supporting the goals and ideals of National Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Week, and for other purposes (rollcall No. 508). ____________________
