On the recordApril 7, 2011
Mr. Speaker, during rollcall vote No. 243 on agreeing to the Rule providing for consideration of H.R. 1363, making appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011, and for other purposes; and waiving a requirement of clause 6(a) of rule XIII with respect to consideration of certain resolutions reported from the Committee on Rules, I had briefly stepped off the floor and was unintentionally delayed and missed the vote on the Rule. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye.'' ____________________
