                     Wednesday, September 14, 2011

  Mr. HIMES. Mr. Speaker, I was unable to be present to cast my vote on 
Mr. Holt's amendment to H.R. 2218--Empowering Parents through Quality 
Charter Schools Act. I wish the record to reflect my intentions had I 
been able to vote.
  Had I been present for rollcall No. 702, I would have voted ``yes.''
