Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore
The SPEAKER pro tempore (during the vote). There are 2 minutes
remaining.
{time} 1159
Messrs. UPTON, ROGERS of Michigan, STARK, KEATING, TIERNEY, and Mrs.
NAPOLITANO changed their vote from ``yea'' to ``nay.''
Messrs. HASTINGS of Florida and CUMMINGS changed their vote from
``nay'' to ``yea.''
So the bill was passed.
The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
Stated for:
Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, regretfully I was out of town due to
a family funeral. If I had been present to vote I would have voted
``yea'' on final passage of H.R. 6156--Russia and Moldova Jackson-Vanik
Repeal and Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act of 2012.
Mr. WOLF. Madam Speaker, due to a long-scheduled obligation in
northern Virginia this morning, I was unable to be present for the vote
on the Russia and Moldova Jackson-Vanik Repeal and Sergei Magnitsky
Rule of Law Accountability Act of 2012. I would have voted ``yea'' for
this legislation if I was present because the Magnitsky Rule of Law
provisions are essential to hold those who violate human rights and
freedom of speech accountable.
Stated against:
Mr. FILNER. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall 608, I was away from the Capitol
due to prior commitments to my constituents. Had I been present, I
would have voted ``nay.''
personal explanation
Mr. GEORGE MILLER of California. Madam Speaker, on November 15, 2012,
I was unavoidably detained and missed roll Nos. 605, 606, and 607. Had
I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on roll Nos. 605 and 606 and
``yea'' on Roll No. 607.
On November 16, 2012, I was unavoidably detained and missed Roll No.
608. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' to approve H.R.
6156.
