Congress Won’t Move Against Fortas Over Wolfson Fee
Congress appears unlikely to impeach Justice Abe Fortas over a $20,000 fee from Louis Wolfson’s family foundation, with House and Senate leaders signaling no immediate action. Fortas says he returned the money after deciding against the assignment, while Life magazine links the payment to Fortas during his early Supreme Court tenure. The incident marks a second congressional fire over his finances after prior criticism of a $15,000 seminar fee.
