                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ANDER CRENSHAW

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, August 2, 2012

  Mr. CRENSHAW. Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday, July 31, 2012 I unfortunately 
missed three votes on account of travel delays due to weather at Reagan 
National Airport. I realize the importance of the votes I missed and 
therefore would like to state for the record how I would have voted on 
the three bills that were before the House of Representatives on 
Tuesday.
   First, I would have supported S. 679, the Presidential Appointment 
Efficiency and Streamlining Act. S. 679 would seek to reduce the 
burdens and improve the efficiency of the appointment process for 
executive branch officials.
   I would have supported H.R. 828, the Federal Employee Tax 
Accountability Act. H.R. 828 would prohibit individuals who have 
``seriously delinquent'' tax debts from being eligible for federal 
employment in the executive and legislative branch.
   Lastly, I would have supported H.R. 3803, the DC Pain-Capable Unborn 
Child Protection Act. As a co-sponsor of H.R. 3803, I whole heartedly 
support this measure that would prohibit abortion within the District 
after 20 weeks fetal age, unless the mother's life is endangered.
