Your work to advance our Nation's broadband infrastructure has and will continue to bring broadband to more American homes.

Did you find any evidence of fraud?

I was present during rollcall vote 225 on May 9, 2012, but my vote was not recorded. I would have voted ``yea'' on passage of H.R. 4133, the United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012.
