       Dear Mr. Clerk: Pursuant to House Concurrent Resolution 1, 
     and also for purposes of such concurrent resolutions of the 
     current Congress as may contemplate my designation of Members 
     to act in similar circumstances, I hereby designate 
     Representative Tom DeLay of Texas to act jointly with the 
     Majority Leader of the Senate or his designee, in the event 
     of my death or inability, to notify the Members of the House 
     and the Senate, respectively, or any reassembly under any 
     such concurrent resolution. In the event of the death or 
     inability of that designee, the alternate Members of the 
     House listed in the letter bearing this date that I have 
     placed with the Clerk are designated, in turn, for the same 
     purposes.
           Sincerely,
                                                J. Dennis Hastert,
     Speaker of the House of Representatives.
