                             COMMUNICATION

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication:
         Congress of the United States, House of Representatives, 
           Office of the Parliamentarian,
                                Washington, DC, February 10, 2011.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: Attached is a facsimile of a letter of 
     resignation submitted by Rep. Christopher J. Lee to the 
     pertinent Executive authority in the State of New York. It 
     was received in the Capitol last evening. The facsimile 
     previously laid before the House was addressed to the 
     Governor rather than to the Secretary of State. This document 
     will round out the papers of the House on this matter.
           Sincerely,
     John V. Sullivan.
                                  ____

                                 Washington, DC, February 9, 2011.
     Hon. Ruth Noemi Colon,
     Acting Secretary of State, State of New York,
     Albany, NY.
       Dear Secretary of State Colon: I hereby submit my 
     resignation as United States Representative of the 26th 
     District of New York, effective 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard 
     Time, Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Attached is the letter I 
     submitted to Governor Andrew Cuomo.
           Sincerely,


                                           Christopher J. Lee,

     Member of Congress.
