                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. CAROLYN B. MALONEY

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 6, 2012

  Mrs. MALONEY. Mr. Speaker, on June 5, 2012, I missed rollcall votes 
numbered 315, 316, 317, and 318. Had I been present, I would have voted 
``no,'' on rollcall No. 315, the McClintock Amendment which would 
reduce the Nuclear Energy account by $514,391,000, and apply the 
savings to the spending reduction account; ``yes'' on rollcall No. 316, 
the Hirono Amendment which would reduce the Fossil Energy Research and 
Development account by $133,400,000, and increase funds for the 
Advanced Research Project Agency account by the same amount; ``no'' on 
rollcall No. 317, the McClintock Amendment which would zero out the 
Fossil Energy Research and Development account (a cut of $554 million) 
and apply the savings to the spending reduction account; and ``yes'' on 
rollcall No. 318, the Matheson Amendment which would increase the Non-
Defense environmental cleanup account by $9,600,000, and reduce the 
National Nuclear Security Weapons account by the same amount.
