                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

  Ms. JACKSON LEE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise to make a correction on 
the vote on passage of H.R. 5146, providing that Members of Congress 
shall not receive a cost of living adjustment in pay during fiscal year 
2011.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to state for the Record that I support the 
denial of a cost of living adjustment for Members. The correct vote for 
rollcall No. 226 would have been ``aye'' instead of ``nay,'' providing 
that Members of Congress shall not receive a cost of living adjustment 
in pay during fiscal year 2011.
  Again, I want to state that Congresswoman Jackson Lee opposes the 
cost of living adjustment for Members of Congress as stated 
appropriately in H.R. 5146.
