   COMMUNICATION FROM THE HONORABLE CORY GARDNER, MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Honorable Cory Gardner, Member of Congress:

                                     House of Representatives,

                                Washington, DC, November 17, 2011.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker, House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. 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 to testify and to 
     produce documents, issued by the District Court of Larimer 
     County, Colorado.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     inconsistent with the privileges and rights of the House. 
     Furthermore, on November 10, 2011, the District Court of 
     Larimer County, Colorado quashed this subpoena. Therefore, my 
     testimony and production of documents are no longer required.
           Sincerely,
                                                     Cory Gardner,
     Member of Congress.

                          ____________________
