                             Change of Vote

  Mr. PAUL. On rollcall vote No. 110, I voted ``aye.'' It was my 
intention to vote ``nay.'' Therefore, I ask unanimous consent that I be 
permitted to change my vote since it will not affect the outcome.

                            Vote Explanation

 Mr. COWAN. Madam President, I was necessarily absent from 
votes during today's session. Had I been present for the votes, I would 
have supported the nominations of Jane Kelly, of Iowa, to be United 
States Circuit Judge for the Eighth Circuit and Sylvia Mathews Burwell, 
of West Virginia, to be Director of the Office of Management and 
Budget. I would have also supported the motion to proceed to S. 743, 
the Marketplace Fairness Act.
