Today, I was attending to official business in my district, and missed votes on the following three bills considered under suspension of the rules: H. Res. 1222, H. Res. 1041, and H. Res. 1042. On H. Res. 1222, supporting the goals and ideals of National Library Week, I would have voted ``aye.'' On H. Res. 1041, congratulating and commending the University of Idaho's football team for winning the 2009 Humanitarian Bowl in Boise, Idaho, I would have voted ``aye.'' On H. Res. 1042, commending the Boise State University Broncos football team for winning the 2010 Fiesta Bowl, I would have voted ``aye.'' ____________________
