      COMMUNICATION FROM THE HONORABLE BOB NEY, MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  The Speaker pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Honorable Bob Ney, Member of Congress:

                                     House of Representatives,

                               Washington, DC, September 19, 2006.
     Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Hastert: It has been an honor and a privilege 
     to serve the House as Chair of the Franking Commission. I am 
     grateful to Chairman Ehlers for the opportunity I have had to 
     serve in this position.
       I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the majority and 
     minority staff of the Franking Commission, as we have worked 
     together to ensure the standards of the Commission have been 
     met. In particular, I would like to commend Jack Dail and 
     Rich Landon for unending dedication to the commission. The 
     purpose of this letter is to inform you that I am removing 
     myself from the Franking Commission effective today.
           Sincerely,
                                                          Bob Ney,
     Member of Congress.
