Senate Hearing Postponed Due To Coburn Cancer
From the
Huntington, WV Herald-Dispatch:
Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn has had a recurrence of prostate cancer and
is undergoing further evaluation and treatment, according to spokesmen
for the conservative Republican.
Spokesman John Hart said in a brief statement to The Associated Press
that the 65-year-old lawmaker will be out for the rest of the week but
will be back "as soon as he's able, hopefully next week."
This week's treatments, in Oklahoma, forced postponement of another
hearing as to findings of a two-year probe into alleged abuses in how
Social Security disability benefits were approved at Huntington's
federal Office of Disability Adjudication and Review, said spokesman
Aaron Fobes to The Herald-Dispatch.
