                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. MATT SALMON

                               of arizona

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 4, 1999

  Mr. SALMON Mr. Speaker, I'm recorded as having voted ``nay'' on House 
rollcall vote No. 107. I intended to vote ``aye.'' Isn't it ironic that 
on the day that I am putting the finishing touches on the revised K-12 
Education Excellence Now (KEEN) Act, which now explicitly offers a 
federal tax credit of up to $250 annually for teachers who purchase 
school supplies for their students with their own money, I would make 
this error.
