                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. EARL BLUMENAUER

                               of oregon

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, January 30, 2023

  Mr. BLUMENAUER. Mr. Speaker, had I voted, I would have voted ``yes'' 
on passage of H.R. 500, the Financial Exploitation Prevention Act (Roll 
Call No. 94). By allowing registered open-end investment companies to 
delay the redemption of a security if the request was believed to be 
the result of financial exploitation, this bill protects American's 
hard-earned savings. Should this legislation become public law, it will 
bolster our financial security by preventing abuse of seniors and 
vulnerable adults.
