                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. RON KIND

                              of wisconsin

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, January 24, 2019

  Mr. KIND. Madam Speaker, I was unable to have my votes recorded on 
the House floor from Tuesday, January 22 through the first vote series 
on Wednesday, January 23, 2019 due to flight cancellations from heavy 
snow in Wisconsin. Had I been present, I would have supported the 
passage of all bills and resolutions considered on the floor. In 
particular, I strongly supported the passage of H.R. 676, the NATO 
Support Act. NATO has been a critical organization in protecting the 
rules-based international world order that was created by the U.S. and 
its allies after WWII, and it deserves the full support of the U.S.
