                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Mr. COOPER. Mr. Chairman, earlier today, I was speaking at an event 
being held in the basement of the Rayburn building and because the 
clock and bell system did not work in Room B-338, I missed two votes on 
amendments to H.R. 2965, the Federal Prison Industries Reform Act of 
2006. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on the first Scott 
Amendment and ``aye'' on the second Scott Amendment.
  The Acting CHAIRMAN. The question is on the committee amendment in 
the nature of a substitute, as amended.
  The committee amendment in the nature of a substitute, as amended, 
was agreed to.
  The Acting CHAIRMAN. Under the rule, the Committee rises.
  Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. 
Shimkus) having assumed the chair, Mr. Gillmor, Acting Chairman of the 
Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, reported that 
that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 2965) to 
amend title 18, United States Code, to require Federal Prison 
Industries to compete for its contracts minimizing its unfair 
competition with private sector firms and their non-inmate workers and 
empowering Federal agencies to get the best value for taxpayers' 
dollars, to provide a 5-year period during which Federal Prison 
Industries adjusts to obtaining inmate work opportunities through other 
than its mandatory source status, to enhance inmate access to remedial 
and vocational opportunities and other rehabilitative opportunities to 
better prepare inmates for a successful return to society, to authorize 
alternative inmate work opportunities in support of non-profit 
organizations and other public service programs, and for other 
purposes, pursuant to House Resolution 997, he reported the bill back 
to the House with an amendment adopted by the Committee of the Whole.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is 
ordered.
  Is a separate vote demanded on the amendment to the committee 
amendment in the nature of a substitute adopted by the Committee of the 
Whole? If not, the question is on the committee amendment in the nature 
of a substitute.
  The committee amendment in the nature of a substitute was agreed to.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the engrossment and third 
reading of the bill.
  The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was 
read the third time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the passage of the bill.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the ayes appeared to have it.
  Mr. SENSENBRENNER. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 and clause 9 of rule 
XX, this 15-minute vote on passage of H.R. 2965 will be followed by 5-
minute votes on ordering the previous question on H. Res. 1002, and
