                            VOTE EXPLANATION

 Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, I regret I was not present for the 
June 8, 2016, vote on the motion to invoke cloture on the compound 
motion to go to conference on H.R. 2577, the Departments of 
Transportation, and Housing and Urban Development, and Military 
Construction and Veterans Affairs appropriations bill, and the Zika 
supplemental appropriations bill.
  Had I been present, I would have voted yes on cloture. This 
bipartisan bill supports our Veterans, invests in our national 
infrastructure, and provides funding to address the Zika virus.
  Additionally, I would have supported the Nelson motion to instruct 
conferees and opposed the Sullivan motion to instruct 
conferees.
