On Thursday, November 19, I was absent from the House due to illness. Due to my absence, I am not recorded on any legislative measures for the day. I would like to reflect how I would have voted had I been present for legislative business. Had I been present, I would have voted ``no'' on rollcall 638, the Motion on Ordering the Previous Question on the American SAFE Act of 2015. I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall 639, providing for consideration of the American SAFE Act of 2015. I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall 640, the Democratic Motion to Recommit the FORM Act of 2015. I would have voted ``no'' on rollcall 641, the FORM Act of 2015. I would have voted ``yes'' on rollcall 642, the Democratic Motion to Recommit the American SAFE Act of 2015. I would have voted ``no'' on rollcall 643, the American SAFE Act of 2015.
