                      Wednesday, January 29, 2014

  Mr. BLUMENAUER. Mr. Speaker, due to a medical issue, I was unable to 
be in Washington, DC for votes on Monday, January 27, 2014. I support 
H.R. 2166, the Good Samaritan Search and Recovery Act, and H.R. 3008, 
which authorizes the Forest Service to exchange a small parcel of 
National Forest System land in Los Padres National Forest in 
California. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yes'' on both.
