                          PERSONAL EXPLANATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. KEITH ELLISON

                              of minnesota

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, February 28, 2012

  Mr. ELLISON. Mr. Speaker, during final consideration of H.R. 347, the 
Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011, I 
inadvertently voted ``nay'' on rollcall vote 73 when I intended to vote 
``aye''. I would like the record to reflect that I support the bill, 
which creates sensible penalties for knowingly breaching the security 
of locations such as the White House and its grounds.
