Congress reform urged by Culver and panel
Rep. John C Culver warned Congress needs a fundamental restructuring of the committee system to match modern times and new scopes. He urged 20 new house committees, staff expansion, and mobility among panels to broaden knowledge, citing aging chairmen and obsolescent practices. Gardner and Davidson supported accountability, lobbying controls, and funding disclosures while noting the political cost of reform.
