WASHINGTON — Conservative Republican Tim Huelskamp of Kansas is one of four tea-party Congressmen who were stripped of their plum committee assignments by GOP house leaders. The leaders kicked Huelskamp off the powerful House Budget and Agriculture committees. Huelskamp and the three others frequently bucked Speaker John Boehner. The move infuriated tea-party groups. Huelskamp called the action vindictive. He says he won’t be deterred from his conservative principles. Huelskamp’s Big First District includes part of Osage County.
