Whereas, in the case of James McKoy v. North Fork Services/Joint Venture, No.
2004-CAA-00002, pending before the United States Department of Labor,
testimony has been requested from Resi Cooper, an employee in the Long

Whereas, pursuant to sections 703(a) and 704(a)(2) of the Ethics in Government
Act of 1978, 2 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 288b(a) and 288c(a)(2), the Senate may
direct its counsel to represent employees of the Senate with respect to
any subpoena, order, or request for testimony relating to their official

Whereas, by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and rule XI of the
Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the control or in the
possession of the Senate may, by the judicial or administrative process,
be taken from such control or possession but by permission of the

Resolved, That Resi Cooper is authorized to testify in the case of
James McKoy v. North Fork Services/Joint Venture, except concerning
