      COMMUNICATION FROM CHAIR OF COMMITTEE ON ENERGY AND COMMERCE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the chair of the Committee on Energy and Commerce:

                                    Congress of the United States,


                                     House of Representatives,

                                Washington, DC, February 25, 2019.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Madame Speaker: This is to notify you formally, 
     pursuant to Rule VIII of the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives, that the Committee on Energy and Commerce 
     has been served with a subpoena for documents issued by the 
     United States District Court for the Central District of 
     California.
       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,
                                               Frank Pallone, Jr.,
     Chairman.

                          ____________________
