MOTION TO INSTRUCT CONFEREES ON H.R. 1501, JUVENILE JUSTICE REFORM ACT 
                                OF 1999

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Hefley). The unfinished business is the 
question of agreeing to the motion to instruct on the bill (H.R. 1501) 
to amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to 
provide grants to ensure increased accountability for juvenile 
offenders; to amend the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act 
of 1974 to provide quality prevention programs and accountability 
programs relating to juvenile delinquency; and for other purposes, 
offered by the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lofgren), on which the 
yeas and nays were ordered.
  The Clerk will designate the motion.
  The text of the motion is as follows:
       Ms. Lofgren moves that the managers on the part of the 
     House at the conference on the disagreeing votes of the two 
     Houses on the Senate amendment to the bill, H.R. 1501, be 
     instructed to insist that the committee of conference 
     recommend a conference substitute that--
       (1) includes a loophole-free system that assures that no 
     criminals or other prohibited purchasers (e.g. murderers, 
     rapists, child molesters, fugitives from justice, 
     undocumented aliens, stalkers, and batterers) obtain firearms 
     from non-licensed persons and federally licensed firearms 
     dealers at gun shows;
       (2) does not include provisions that weaken current gun 
     safety law; and
       (3) includes provisions that aid in the enforcement of 
     current laws against criminals who use guns (e.g. murderers, 
     rapists, child molesters, fugitives from justice, stalkers 
     and batterers).

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to instruct 
offered by the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lofgren) on which the 
yeas and nays are ordered.
  This will be a 5-minute vote.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 305, 
nays 117, not voting 11, as follows:

  Messrs. BURTON of Indiana, NEY, DeLAY, SHOWS, WHITFIELD, ADERHOLT, 
STRICKLAND, LARGENT, and KINGSTON changed their vote from ``yea'' to 
``nay.''
  Mr. RADANOVICH changed his vote from ``nay'' to ``yea.''
  So the motion was agreed to.
  The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
  Stated against:
  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Mr. Speaker, I mistakenly voted in favor of the 
motion to instruct conferees on H.R. 1501 offered by Ms. Lofgren. My 
vote should have been recorded as a vote in opposition to the motion.
