RESIGNATION AS MEMBER OF COMMITTEE ON TRANSPORTATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mrs. Emerson) laid before the House the 
following resignation from the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure:


                                     House of Representatives,

                                 Washington, DC, February 8, 2005.
     Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Hastert: Effective immediately I am resigning 
     my position on the House Transportation and Infrastructure 
     Committee.
       It has been a pleasure to serve on the Committee, and I 
     will continue to support the Committee to achieve its 
     legislative goals. However, because of my recent appointment 
     to the House Financial Services Committee and the House 
     Homeland Security Committee as well as my continued service 
     on the House Resources Committee, it is necessary for me to 
     resign from the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
       Mr. Speaker, thank you for appointing me to the House 
     Financial Services and Homeland Security Committees. I look 
     forward to these new Committee assignments and working to 
     advance the Majority agenda. Your help was critical and I 
     greatly appreciate your effort on my behalf.
       Thank you for your support and for accepting my resignation 
     from the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. 
     If you have any questions, please contact me.
           Sincerely,
                                                    Stevan Pearce,
                                               Member of Congress.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the resignation is 
accepted.
  There was no objection.
