                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RUSS CARNAHAN

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 7, 2010

  Mr. CARNAHAN. Madam Speaker, due to being unavoidably delayed, I 
missed the vote on the Velazquez/Gutierrez Amendment No. 5 to H.R. 2499 
(Roll No. 238). I would like the Record to reflect that I would have 
voted against this amendment, which failed overwhelmingly by a margin 
of 11-387, had I been present to record my vote.
