                          CONGRESSIONAL ETHICS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from Yvonne B. Burke, Member of the Commission of the 
Office of Congressional Ethics:

                                                  Yvonne B. Burke,


                                              Attorney at Law,

                                                  January 8, 2014.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker,
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Leader,
     House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker and Madam Minority Leader: I am serving 
     notice today of my intention to resign from the OCE. It is 
     with great regrets and only because I accepted a position as 
     a member of the Board of AMTRAK that I am asking to be 
     relieved. The additional travel to the District for two 
     meeting has become extremely difficult particularly because 
     of my other responsibilities.
       I have really enjoyed working with the Members of the OCE 
     and the staff. I feel very proud of the accomplishments of 
     the OCE and its positive contribution to the House of 
     Representatives.
       I have been honored to have had this opportunity to serve.
       Best wishes,
           Yours truly,
     Yvonne B. Burke.
