                      Wednesday, February 10, 2016

  Mr. GENE GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to state that I 
was unable to vote on Tuesday, February 9, 2016 due to community events 
held that evening in our district in Houston and Harris County, Texas.
  If I had the opportunity to vote, I would have voted ``Yea'' on H.R. 
3036, legislation to designate the National September 11 Memorial 
located at the World Trade Center in New York City, New York, as a 
national memorial.
