                ANNOUNCEMENT BY THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the foregoing communications, 
the party affiliation of Representative Martinez has been switched for 
informational voting record purposes and his committee memberships have 
been vacated.
  Had the foregoing communication of July 27, 2000, from Representative 
Martinez to the Clerk been laid before the House at that time, the 
party affiliation for voting informational purposes would have been 
changed or, as has been the case in the past, the process would have 
been timely noticed in writing to the chairman of the Democratic Caucus 
who, in turn, would notify the Speaker by letter pursuant to clause 
5(b) of rule X.
