On the recordApril 5, 2011
Mr. President, yesterday, because I had the flu, I was not able to attend rollcall vote No. 47, to confirm Jimmie V. Reyna, of Maryland, to be United States Circuit Judge for the Federal Circuit. Mr. Reyna's nomination was given the highest possible rating by the American Bar Association, and his nomination was reported out of the Judiciary Committee unanimously. With over 30 years of private practice experience, I believe he will be an excellent addition to the Federal circuit. If I had been present, I would have voted aye on this nomination. ____________________
