                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JEFF DENHAM

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 12, 2012

  Mr. DENHAM. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 318, I was unable to cast a 
vote on this amendment to the Energy and Water Appropriations bill for 
fiscal year 2013 due to obligations in my district. The underlying bill 
was a well struck balance of funding priorities, and I feel that the 
funding for our National Nuclear Security Administration should be 
maintained at appropriate levels to protect our national security.
  Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay.''
