             RESIGNATION FROM THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Veasey) laid before the House the 
following resignation from the House of Representatives:

                                     House of Representatives,

                                   Washington, DC, March 10, 2021.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker of the House,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Pelosi: It has been my honor and privilege to 
     serve the people of the 11th Congressional District of Ohio 
     since November 2008. My appreciation for their support as I 
     sought to represent their interests and those of many 
     Americans for whom I could be a voice is boundless.
       I will always remember my colleagues and friends who have 
     become a part of my family during the last twelve years. I am 
     fortunate to have been selected by President Joe Biden to 
     continue to serve the public good as Secretary of Housing and 
     Urban Development.
       Therefore, please accept this correspondence as notice of 
     my resignation from the U.S. House of Representatives, 11th 
     Congressional District of Ohio, effective immediately upon 
     delivery on March 10, 2021. Thank you for your leadership and 
     support during my tenure.
           Sincerely,
     Marcia L. Fudge.
                                  ____



                                     House of Representatives,

                                   Washington, DC, March 10, 2021.
     Hon. Mike DeWine,
     Governor of Ohio,
     Columbus, OH.
       Dear Governor DeWine: Effective March 10, 2021, I have 
     resigned my seat in the U.S. House of Representatives 
     representing the 11th Congressional District of Ohio. 
     Enclosed is a copy of my letter of resignation to the Speaker 
     of the House, Nancy Pelosi, which was hand delivered to her 
     this afternoon.
       An Ohioan born and bred, serving the people of the 11th 
     Congressional District has been an honor. My selection by 
     President Joe Biden as Secretary of Housing and Urban 
     Development and confirmation by the Senate will allow me to 
     continue to serve the public good.
       Thank you for your leadership of our great State.
           Sincerely,
                                                  Marcia L. Fudge.
