...requiring congressional assistants to work either in Washington or in their Congressman's home district. As a result of her failure to appear, Subcommittee Chairman Wayne Hays of Ohio said that he would recommend that she be removed from the congressional payroll, and that steps be initiated to cite her for contempt of Congress...
