                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 8, 2006

       The House in Committee of the Whole House on the State of 
     the Union had under consideration the bill (H.R. 5252) to 
     promote the deployment of broadband networks and services:

  Mr. UPTON. Mr. Chairman, I also want to add that Mr. McCrery wanted 
to cosponsor H.R. 5252, but was unable to do so because the bill 
already had been reported by the House Energy and Commerce Committee. I 
certainly appreciate his interest in cosponsoring the bill nonetheless.
