Frahm Targets Armed Services and Banking Posts in Senate Start
Kansas Republican Sheila Frahm, sworn in to replace Bob Dole, names Armed Services and Banking as top committee targets and declines Agriculture. She backs Rep. Pat Roberts for the Agriculture seat, cites his experience, and notes her seniority ranking of 100 in the Senate. She adds that assignments on B level panels will follow as others jockey for position. Frahm faces Rep. Sam Brownback in the Aug. 6 GOP primary with a race against a Democratic opponent in the fall.
