                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 20, 2013

  Mr. POMPEO. Mr. Speaker, on May 17, I missed rollcall votes numbered 
155, 156, 157, 158, 159, and 160 because I was in Kansas.
  Rollcall No. 155 was a vote on the Previous Question. Had I been 
present I would have voted ``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 156 was a vote on the rule for H.R. 1062, the SEC 
Regulatory and Accountability Act. Had I been present I would have 
voted ``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 157 was a vote on an amendment to H.R. 1062 offered by 
Representative Hurt to express the sense of Congress that rules adopted 
by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) comply with 
the same standards required of the SEC, and requires the SEC to ensure 
that any rules adopted by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board 
(MSRB), and other national securities associations comply with the 
standards set forth in the bill. Had I been present I would have voted 
``yes.''
  Rollcall No. 158 was a vote on an amendment to H.R. 1062 offered by 
Representative Maloney to strike all text after the enacting clause and 
insert findings and a sense of Congress that the SEC is already 
required to conduct economic analysis as part of its rulemaking. Had I 
been present I would have voted ``no.''
  Rollcall No. 159 was a vote on a motion to recommit H.R. 1062. Had I 
been present I would have voted ``no.''
  Rollcall No. 160 was a vote on passage of H.R. 1062. Had I been 
present I would have voted ``yes.''
