                       Wednesday, April 25, 2012

  Mr. JOHNSON of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, on Tuesday April 24, 2012 I had 
obligations that necessitated my attention in my district and missed a 
suspension vote on H.R. 2157, to facilitate a land exchange involving 
certain National Forest System lands in the Inyo National Forest. Had I 
been present for this vote, I would have cast an ``aye'' vote for this 
piece of legislation.
  Again, had I been present, I would have voted ``aye'' on H.R. 2157.
