  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from Mohamed Abbamin, legislative assistant, the 
Honorable Robert C. ``Bobby'' Scott, Member of Congress:


                                     House of Representatives,

                                Washington, DC, November 24, 2009.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Madame Speaker: This is to notify you formally, 
     pursuant to Rule VIII of the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives, that I have been served with a subpoena for 
     testimony issued by the United States District Court for the 
     Eastern District of Virginia in connection with a criminal 
     case now pending in the same court.
       After consultation with the Office of the General Counsel, 
     I have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     consistent with the precedents and privileges of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                  Mohamed Abbamin,
     Legislative Assistant.

                          ____________________
