HON. ANTHONY D. WEINER

Thursday, November 15, 2001
Mr. WEINER. Mr. Speaker, I was unavoidably detained in my District on Tuesday, November 13, 2001, and I would like the Record to indicate how I would have voted had I been present.
For rollcall vote No. 436, the conference report for the Agriculture appropriations act for fiscal 2002, I would have voted ``aye.''
For rollcall vote No. 437, a bill to enhance the authorities of special agents and provide limited authorities to uniformed officers responsible for the protection of domestic Department of State occupied facilities, I would have voted ``aye.''
