  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following

Congress:

                                    Congress of the United States,


                                     House of Representatives,

                                  Washington, DC, August 14, 2018.
     Hon. Paul D. Ryan,

     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: This is to notify you formally, pursuant 
     to Rule VIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, 
     that I have been served with a subpoena for documents issued 
     by the Fairfax County Circuit Court.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is not 
     consistent with the privileges and rights of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                               Gerald E. Connolly,
                                               Member of Congress.

     

                          ____________________
