                      Wednesday, December 15, 2010

  Mr. PETERS. Madam Speaker, on December 9, 2010 I missed rollcall vote 
No. 627 because I was attending a White House signing ceremony for the 
Animal Crush Video Prohibition Act of 2010--legislation which I helped 
author. Had I been present I would have voted in favor of H.R. 6412, 
the Access to Criminal History Records for State Sentencing Commissions 
Act of 2010, legislation which will help improve criminal sentencing 
procedures in states throughout the country.
