                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                  _____
                                 

                          HON. JOSE E. SERRANO

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 31, 2012

  Mr. SERRANO. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall No. 531 I inadvertently voted 
``aye'' when I intended to vote ``no'' on the Fitzpatrick Amendment to 
H.R. 4078. I would like the record to reflect this error, and to 
reiterate my opposition to efforts to undermine the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 
of 2002. Sarbanes-Oxley has been an important bill that improves 
corporate transparency and helps to ensure confidence in our financial 
markets, and I continue to support this vital legislation.
