On Thursday, June 23, 2011, I was absent during rollcall vote No. 490 in order to attend my grandson's graduation. Had I been present, I would have voted ``yea'' on the Motion to Recommit H.R. 1249--America Invents Act. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Yoder). The question is on the passage of the bill. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the ayes appeared to have it. Recorded Vote
