CORRECTION OF PRINTING ERRORS IN HOUSE REPORT 106-645 ACCOMPANYING H.R.
4577, DEPARTMENTS OF LABOR, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, AND EDUCATION,
AND RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2001
Mr. YOUNG of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise to make the following
statement to correct a printing error in the Record.
Mr. Speaker, the report to accompany the Departments of Labor, Health
and Human Services, and Education and Related Agencies Appropriations
Act, 2001, House Report 106-645, includes a printing error. On page
204, roll-call vote number 4, the amendment dealing with ergonomics,
under the column for Members voting ``nay,'' there is a name ``Mr.
Lextra.''
That name should not be in that column. There is no such person on
the Committee on Appropriations or in the House of Representatives.
Under the column for Members voting ``present,'' the name of the
gentleman from California (Mr. Dixon) appears. The report the committee
filed with the House shows that the gentleman from California (Mr.
Dixon) voted ``nay,'' not ``present.'' His name should not have been
printed in the ``present'' column but in the ``nay'' column.
Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that this statement reflecting
the accurate vote of the gentleman from California (Mr. Dixon) on the
ergonomics issue appear not only in today's Record but in the permanent
Record for the day that this legislation was initially considered, June
8, 2000.
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Shimkus). Is there objection to the
request of the gentleman from Florida?
Mr. OBEY. Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to object, I would just
like to inquire of the gentleman from Florida how many other times has
Mr. Lextra voted in this or any other committee, even though he is not
a member of the committee and, to my knowledge, is not a Member of the
House?
Mr. YOUNG of Florida. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
Mr. OBEY. I yield to the gentleman from Florida.
Mr. YOUNG of Florida. Mr. Speaker, as the gentleman is well aware, he
and I read every word and every comma of each report. I have not seen
the name Mr. Lextra ever, and I doubt the gentleman from Wisconsin has.
Mr. OBEY. Mr. Speaker, I withdraw my reservation of objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the
gentleman from Florida?
There was no objection.
