  Mr. PASCRELL. Madam Speaker, I want to state for the record that 
yesterday I missed the two rollcall votes of the day. Unfortunately, I 
missed these votes because I was detained in my district.
  Had I been present I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall vote No. 
969 On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Agree, as Amended--H. Res. 779--
Recognizing and supporting the goals and ideals of National Runaway 
Prevention Month.
  Lastly, had I been present I would have voted ``yea'' on rollcall 
vote No. 970 On Motion to Suspend the Rules and Agree--H. Res. 942--
Commending the Real Salt Lake soccer club for winning the 2009 Major 
League Soccer Cup.
