     Affairs Committee, effective today. At a time when our 
     country has troops deployed in the field fighting against 
     those who would perpetrate harm against our people, it was an 
     honor to return, although briefly, to the House Committee on 
     Foreign Affairs where these critical issues of national 
     security are considered.
           Sincere regards,
                                                        Roy Blunt,
                                                  Republican Whip.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the resignation is 
accepted.
  There was no objection.
