According to Politico, Charlie Rangel has given up his gavel as head of the Ways and Means committee, giving it up to Pete Stark of California. There is no doubt that Pete Stark, one of the most, if not the most liberal members of the Ways and Means committee will carry on the tradition that Rangel has established.
We will have to re-name the committee as the "Way and Mean" committee. According to Politico, Stark is known as " one of the chamber's most liberal, partisan and pugnacious members". "He has had his own recent run-in with the ethics committee, exhibiting bizarre behavior during an investigation that ultimately cleared him of any wrongdoing."
