                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 25, 2018

  Mrs. BLACK. Mr. Speaker, I am not recorded for roll call votes on 
Thursday, May 24, 2018 because I was unavoidably detained. Had I been 
present, I would have voted Aye on final passage of H.R. 5515, the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019. This 
legislation provides our men and women in uniform with the resources 
they need to protect our freedom at home and abroad, and fully funds 
the highest pay raise for our troops in the last nine years.
