                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. CAPPS. Mr. Speaker, today I missed rollcall vote No. 75, final 
passage of H.R. 1003, the Assisted Suicide Funding Restriction Act. I 
was in my district attending the memorial service of Scott Williams, a 
guard at the Federal Penitentiary in Lompoc, CA, who was killed in the 
line of duty last week.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on H.R. 1003.
