25. LOL! right
I said she missed a key vote.

You said she missed voting on the first amendment.

Did she miss a vote? Yes she did.

And what part of the passage above did you omit?

The one describing what the vote was on:

McKinney missed voting on the first amendment, offered by Rep. Charles Norwood (R-Ga.). His amendment would have made it easier for some areas to change their voting laws without approval from the Department of Justice (DoJ) while requiring new areas to get the government’s permission.

And while other black lawmakers stated what an honor it was to be on the floor debating it with a true civil right leader, belatedly arrived on the House floor looking flustered shortly after voting on Norwood’s amendment had ended, a lawmaker who saw her said.
