Powell Plans Bold Fight Over House Power Realignment
Rep. Adam Clayton Powell plans a vigorous fight at Monday's House Democrats caucus to fend off moves to strip his seat or strip him of chairmanship of the Education and Labor Committee. The confrontation follows a House committee finding questionable travel and staff padding. Powell travels from the Bahamas to attend the closed caucus as rivals threaten discipline and potential seniority loss.
