Democrats played host to donor from Bristol-Myers Squibb, firm under investigation by SEC

WASHINGTON (AP) -- At a weekend retreat for favored donors, Democrats played host to a representative of a firm under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, party officials said Monday.

By coincidence, the long-planned gathering occurred during a weekend break in Senate debate on legislation cracking down on corporate wrongdoing.
