             RESIGNATION AS MEMBER OF COMMITTEE ON SCIENCE

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
resignation as a member of the Committee on Science:

                                     House of Representatives,

                                Washington, DC, February 15, 2005.
     Hon. Dennis Hastert,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Hastert: I respectfully request that you 
     permit me to vacate my seat on the House Science Committee as 
     soon as possible. I am hopeful that I would be able to retain 
     my seniority position on this committee should I seek to 
     return in a future Congress. I have greatly enjoyed my 
     service on the House Science Committee.
       Thank you for your kind consideration of this request.
           Sincerely,


                                                  Zoe Lofgren,

                                               Member of Congress.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. LaTourette). Without objection, the 
resignation is accepted.
  There was no objection.
