COMMUNICATION FROM THE SPEAKER

The following communication was received and is on file in the 
office of the Chief Clerk:
April 28, 1999
To all members of the House of Representatives:
On January 11th, 1999, the House of Representatives elected me as Speaker.  I never 
would have believed on that day that I would be writing this letter to you today.  As 
you know the Cedar Rapids Chamber has extended an offer to me and I have accepted.  
It is with very mixed feelings that today April 28th at 1:00 p.m.  I resign my position as 
your Speaker.
I have enjoyed the last five years and they have been years I will never forget.
		Sincerely,
		Ron J. Corbett
		State Representative
MOTION TO RECONSIDER
(Senate File 465)
I move to reconsider the vote by which Senate File 465 passed the 
House on April 28, 1999.
