  Mr. WESTMORELAND. Madam Speaker, due to a personal medical condition 
on July 7, 2009 I missed two votes. Had I been present, I would have 
voted the following:
  ``Aye'' on Directing the Architect of the Capitol to place a marker 
in Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center which acknowledges 
the role that slave labor played in the construction of the United 
States Capitol, and for other purposes. (rollcall No. 478)
  ``No'' to authorize the Secretary of the Interior to provide an 
annual grant to facilitate an iron working training program for Native 
Americans. (rollcall No. 479)
