                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, July 28, 2006

  Mr. HOLT. Mr. Speaker, because of a briefing in the House Permanent 
Select Committee on Intelligence, I was absent for rollcall vote 414 on 
an amendment by Congressman Towns. Had I been present, I would have 
voted ``aye''. I ask that this statement be placed in the correct place 
in the Record.
