                           HON. GEORGE MILLER

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 10, 2007

  Mr. GEORGE MILLER of California. Madam Speaker, I inadvertently voted 
``aye'' on rollcall No. 564, an amendment to the Interior and 
Environment Appropriations bill, H.R. 2643. I intended to vote ``no'' 
on the amendment, which would have imposed an unacceptable cut to the 
National Endowment for the Arts. I am pleased that my colleagues did 
not support this amendment, and I congratulate the gentleman from 
Washington, Interior Subcommittee Chairman Norm Dicks, who provided 
such important support for the arts and humanities in his 
subcommittee's legislation.
