       COMMUNICATION FROM CHAIR OF COMMITTEE ON HOMELAND SECURITY

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Chair of the Committee on Homeland Security:

                                         House of Representatives,


                               Committee on Homeland Security,

                                   Washington, DC, March 24, 2015.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: This is to notify you pursuant to rule 
     VIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, that the 
     Committee on Homeland Security and its subcommittees have 
     received document subpoenas issued by the United States 
     District Court for the District of Massachusetts in a civil 
     case.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel 
     regarding the subpoenas, I have determined that compliance is 
     not consistent with the privileges and rights of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                   Michael McCaul,
     Chairman.

                          ____________________
