                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 20, 2012

  Mr. BRADY of Texas. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 586, I was 
unavoidably detained and could not be present for last night's rollcall 
vote on H.R. 5912, a bill that would amend the Internal Revenue Code of 
1986 to prohibit the use of public funds for political party 
conventions and provide for the return of any previously-distributed 
funds for deficit reduction. I am a strong supporter of this 
legislation. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes.''
