Carter admin considers GSA chief replacement amid probe
Washington AP The Carter administration moves to replace General Services Administration head Jay Solomon, potentially hobbling the corruption inquiry. Irwin Borowski says removing Solomon could erode confidence in the probe as White House aides defend his work under tough conditions. Solomon denies plans to resign as the administration seeks a successor, while Borowski favored appointing him acting inspector general to use subpoena power. The dispute over Borowski’s appointment is cited as a catalyst for Solomon’s possible departure, amid criticism of his openness with the press and last year’s firing of Robert Griffin.
