    TO H.R. 2997, THE AGRICULTURE, RURAL DEVELOPMENT, FOOD AND DRUG 
     ADMINISTRATION, AND RELATED AGENCIES APPROPRIATIONS ACT, 2010

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JERRY MORAN

                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, July 9, 2009

  Mr. MORAN of Kansas. Madam speaker, I submit a clarification of my 
vote on Rollcall No. 503 the Hensarling Amendment No. 6, to H.R. 2997. 
I mistakenly voted ``nay'' when I intended to vote ``yea''. The 
amendment would have Prohibited funds from the Animal and Plant Health 
Inspection Service from being used for an earmark for the National 
Biodiversity Conservation Strategy project, Kiski Basin, Pennsylvania, 
and reduces the overall amount of the appropriations in the bill by 
$200,000.
  I had mistakenly believed that I had voted yea and it was not until 
after the vote had closed that I realized that I had pressed the wrong 
button and voted nay. My vote against the Hensarling amendment was 
purely accidental and I regret my error and appreciate the opportunity 
for clarification.
