PERSONAL EXPLANATION
______
HON. NIKI TSONGAS
of massachusetts
in the house of representatives
Friday, May 9, 2014
Ms. TSONGAS. Mr. Speaker, on rollcall vote No. 204 held on May 7, 2014, I intended to vote ``no.'' I oppose H. Res. 565, ``Calling on Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr., to appoint a special counsel to investigate the targeting of conservative nonprofit groups by the Internal Revenue Service,'' and support the ongoing efforts of the Justice Department to investigate the alleged targeting of both conservative and liberal groups.
