On the recordJuly 22, 2014
Madam President, on July 16, 2014, I was absent from votes on the confirmation of Mr. Ronnie L. White to be U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri Vote No. 227 and on S. 2578, the Protect Women's Health from Corporate Interference Act of 2014 Vote No. 228. I wish to state for the record my strong support for Mr. White's nomination and the Protect Women's Health from Corporate Interference Act. I also wish to state that I would have voted aye on Mr. White's nomination and the Protect Women's Health from Corporate Interference Act had I been present. ____________________
