                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RUSS CARNAHAN

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 13, 2010

  Mr. CARNAHAN. Madam Speaker, due to being unavoidably delayed, I 
missed the vote on the passage of H.R. 5014, to clarify the health care 
provided by the Secretary of Veteran Affairs that constitutes minimum 
essential coverage (roll No. 260). I would have voted in favor of this 
bill, which passed overwhelmingly by a margin of 417-0 had I been 
present to record my vote.
