                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JOHN S. TANNER

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 27, 2009

  Mr. TANNER. Madam Speaker, I rise to clarify my vote on rollcall vote 
642, taken in this Chamber on July 24, on Mr. Souder's amendment to 
H.R. 3293--Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and 
Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2010. As I was 
returning from a meeting at the Pentagon, there was a miscommunication 
regarding which amendment was being considered, and I mistakenly voted 
``nay.'' I intended to vote ``aye'' on rollcall vote 642.
