                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, January 22, 2009

  Ms. HERSETH SANDLIN. Madam Speaker, I regret that I was unable to 
participate in a vote on the floor of the House of Representatives 
yesterday.
  The vote was on an amendment offered by Representative Maurice 
Hinchey of New York to H.R. 384, the TARP Reform and Accountability 
Act. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on that question.

                          ____________________
