to airline delays between California and Washington, DC and was unable 
to cast my vote for Rollcalls 405 and 406. Had I been present I would 
have voted:
  Rollcall No. 405--``yes'': To amend chapter 15 of title 44, United 
States Code (commonly known as the Federal Register Act), to modernize 
the Federal Register, and for other purposes. (386-0)

to identify and coordinate international science and technology 
cooperation that can strengthen the domestic science and technology 
enterprise and support United States foreign policy goals. (346-41)
