MISCOMMUNICATION FROM THE FLOOR
(Mr. PALLONE asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I just wanted to take note of the fact that
some of us on the Energy and Commerce Committee were in executive
session on a very important national security matter, and we were told
that the first vote this evening was going to be held for us for a few
minutes so we could get down here and vote.
Unfortunately, that did not happen. I was upset by it. It was
obviously a miscommunication from the floor. However, I do want
everyone to understand that those of us who were not able to vote on
that first matter this evening did so because of the executive session
on national security, and it was through no fault of our own that we
missed that first vote.
