Mr. Speaker. I was unavoidably absent in the House chamber today because I was at the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals hearing in New Orleans. LA. on President Barack Obamas immigration executive actions. Had I been present. I would have voted "nay" on roll call vote 431. I would have voted "yea" on roll call vote 432 and in favor of the Lee/Schakowsky/ Clarke Amendment which would have struck from the underlying bill controversial policy riders that will undermine a womans right to choose. This amendment would have protected womens health care choices and was especially vital to lowincome and minority womens health.
