Washington, DC – We finish a two-part series today (Thursday, 7/31) on two of Alabama's retiring congressmen. Democrat Bud Cramer and Republican Terry Everett are not seeking re-election. This morning, we look at Bud Cramer, who won his ninth term easily in 2006. He sits on some of the most powerful committees in the House. So no one expected him to call it quits. Elizabeth Wynne Johnson reports from Capitol Hill.

OUTRO: You can find this report and our profile of retiring Republican Congressman Terry Everett online at www.apr.org.
