       Dear Mr. Speaker: This is to formally notify you pursuant 
     to Rule VIII of the Rules of the House that I received a 
     grand jury subpoena for documents issued by the U.S. District 
     Court for the Western District of Louisiana.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     consistent with the privileges and precedents of the House.
           Sincerely,
     Sally Asseff.
