                                 Washington, DC, October 16, 2015.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,

[[Page 16148]]

     of the House of Representatives, that I have been served with 
     two grand jury subpoenas for documents issued by the United 
     States District Court for the Central District of Illinois.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with one of the subpoenas is 
     consistent with the privileges and rights of the House. After 
     further consultation with counsel, I will make the 
     determinations required by Rule VIII with respect to the 
     second subpoena.
           Sincerely,
     Ed Cassidy.
