                            VOTE EXPLANATION

  Ms. KLOBUCHAR. Mr. President, today I wish to discuss Senate 
amendment No. 3021, which would enable research and development of 
advanced nuclear energy technologies. I support this amendment but was 
not present when the Senate voted to adopt it 87-4 on Thursday, January 
28, 2016.
  Had I been present, I would have voted in favor of the amendment, and 
my vote would not have changed the outcome of this amendment.
  Research and development into the next generation of innovative 
energy technologies are important to our Nation's all-of-the-above 
energy strategy.
  Thank you.

                          ____________________
