             RESIGNATION FROM THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
resignation from the House of Representatives:


                                     House of Representatives,

                                    Washington, DC, April 9, 2008.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker of the House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Pelosi, I am hereby resigning my position as 
     the United States Representative for the 4th District of 
     Maryland effective 11:59 p.m. EST, May 31, 2008.
       I have chosen that date because it allows me the necessary 
     time to complete several ongoing projects and allows Governor 
     O'Malley sufficient time to call a special election to fill 
     the remainder of my term and maintain the super delegate seat 
     at this year's Democratic Convention.
       It has been my honor to serve the constituents of the 4th 
     Congressional District for the past 16 years. I will do 
     everything in my power to assist my successor with the 
     transition.
           Sincerely,
                                                   Albert R. Wynn,
     Member of Congress.
                                  ____



                                     House of Representatives,

                                    Washington, DC, April 9, 2008.
     Hon. Martin O'Malley,
     Governor, State of Maryland, Maryland State House, State 
         Circle, Annapolis, MD.
       Dear Governor O'Malley, I am hereby resigning my position 
     as the United States Representative for the 4th District of 
     Maryland effective 11:59 p.m. EST, May 31, 2008.
       I have chosen that date because it allows me the necessary 
     time to complete several ongoing projects and allows you 
     sufficient time to call a special election to fill the 
     remainder of my term and maintain the super delegate seat at 
     this year's Democratic Convention.
       It has been my honor to serve the constituents of the 4th 
     Congressional District for the past 16 years. I will do 
     everything in my power to assist my successor with the 
     transition.
           Sincerely,
                                                   Albert R. Wynn,
     Member of Congress.
