                      Wednesday, October 10, 2007

  Mr. UDALL of Colorado. Madam Speaker, because my airline flight was 
delayed I was not able to be present for two votes on October 9th. Had 
I been present I would have voted as follows:
  Rollcall No. 949--passage of H. Res. 32, denouncing the practices of 
female genital mutilation, domestic violence, ``honor'' killings, acid 
burning, dowry deaths, and other gender-based persecutions and 
expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that 
participation, protection, recognition, and independence of women is 
crucial to achieving a just, moral, and honorable society--I would have 
voted ``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 950--passage of H.R. 400, War Profiteering Prevention 
Act of 2007--I would have voted ``yes.''
