GOP Dispute Over Senate Foreign Relations Leader Seat
Washington November 18 Republicans wrestle with who should lead the Senate Foreign Relations Committee as Morse seems favored by Vandenberg yet Morse faces opposition from rivals. Morse touts a letter from Vandenberg endorsing his rise while Knowland challenges him on seniority and policy, with several GOP senators ready to test Vandenberg’s influence. The committee’s makeup shifts with January’s new Congress, from eight Democrats and five Republicans to seven Democrats and six Republicans.
